BADSHAHBOOK: The 2023 edition of the IPL will begin on March 31, with Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans clashing at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Here is the complete list of IPL 2023 captains.
Gujarat Titans come into the season as the defending champions. They defeated Rajasthan Royals in the final in Ahmedabad in 2022. Hardik Pandya led Gujarat Titans to success in his debut season as captain. Sanju Samson, who was the captain of Rajasthan Royals, also won praise for his performance as a skipper throughout the campaign.
Both are expected to captain their respective teams again in IPL 2023. MS Dhoni will also take the helm again for Chennai Super Kings and hope to reach the play-offs after a mediocre campaign in 2022. Rohit Sharma, meanwhile, will lead Mumbai Indians, who are coming off their worst season, while Faf du Plessis and KL Rahul will take charge of Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants respectively.

Sunrisers Hyderabad, on the other hand, have appointed South African all-rounder Eden Markram as the captain as they hope to do better than the last two seasons. Punjab Kings also released Mayank Agarwal in the off-season and have since replaced him as captain with Shikhar Dhawan.
