IPL 2019: 5 Players you won't believe have captained in IPL

#3 Murali Vijay

Murali Vijay led Kings XI Punjab in 2016

Murali Vijay has had an illustrious IPL career. He was phenomenal for the Chennai Super Kings and went to play for the other franchises as well. Vijay has played 101 games in the Indian Premier League so far and scored more than 2500 runs at an average of 26.28.

The Tamil Nadu star was bought by Kings XI Punjab during the 2016 IPL auction. He replaced David Miller as the captain midway through the season after a poor start to the campaign. However, Vijay had a tough time as a captain.

In the eight games he captained Kings XI Punjab, they have managed to win only three and lost the remaining games. They failed to qualify for the playoffs and finished last with just four wins in 14 games. It was the only season Vijay has led a team in the Indian Premier League.
