IPL 2022: Vaughan feels Faf du Plessis best IPL captain to end RCB trophy’s drought- check why?
“I think he’s the best captain in the IPL. I just see him as a magnificent thinker, that’s both with bay in hand and how he’s at long-off and just kind of manoeuvres the team. He only comes in-field when there’s a review worth looking at. He’s got good combinations, a good attack but it’s just the way he uses them. He used all his bowlers inside the first 9-10 overs because he just wanted to make sure that the batters weren’t lining up any of them, ” Vaughan said.
He said that du Plessis’ experience of winning multiple trophies for CSK has helped RCB.
“I have said it from the start, because of Faf, the RCB team this year have just got a great opportunity. Because you’ve got the tools and you’ve got a really clever cricket thinker, and he’s won it before quite a few times with Chennai, he knows how to win the IPL. He’s just got a different shirt on,” he added.

Royal Challengers Bangalore (4th, 14 Points): Faf du Plessis’ RCB clinched a much-needed win over the Sunrisers Hyderabad to boost their qualification hopes. The 67-run thrashing also boosted their poor NRR keeping them in contention for the spot in the top 4.
- RCB need to win all of their two remaining games to seal a playoff spot.
- They can qualify with 1 win in 2 matches or 16 points but other results will have to go their way.
- If they win one out of two, they have to improve their Net Run Rate which stands at -0.115.
- RCB Remaining Matches: Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans.
