However, Manjrekar has gone even one step further to claim he is a better leader than RCB’s former skipper Virat Kohli. Speaking to ESPNCricinfo, Manjrekar said:
“Faf du Plessis has looked like a better leader than Virat Kohli. But more is expected of them. Having come this far, they should have won. A lot of credit around the bowling unit has to go to Faf. That’s where we see the captaincy at its best.”

“More often than not, he got it right. He started the season well with the bat but, like a lot of other players, he too had a split season. Still, he’s the right option to continue as captain according to me,” he further added.
Meanwhile, Faf du Plessis also surpassed Kohli in terms of performance with the bat. While Kohli scored only 341 runs at an average of 22.73 and a strike rate of 115.98, du Plessis smashed 468 runs at an average of 31.20 and a strike rate of 127.52. He scored three half-centuries, as compared to Kohli’s two.
