The Faf du Plesis-led RCB have Virat Kohli, who need no introduction. The emergence of RCB may be attributed in large part to the former Indian captain, who has recently been the most successful Indian cricketer, and his fans both on and off the ground.
Additionally, MS Dhoni doesn’t require an introduction. This IPL season, the former Indian captain is handily topping the popularity race. The CSK skipper has so far had an abundance of love from the crowd everywhere he has played, whether it was at his home stadium of Chepauk or in away games at M Chinnaswamy, Wankhede, Eden Gardens, or Motera.
