Gautam Gambhir was perhaps one of the best captains in the Indian Premier League. Due to his attitude and brilliance, the Kolkata Knight Riders won the tournament in 2012 as well as 2014. With the bat too, he provided a good start. His footwork against the spinners was a treat to watch for the cricket fans.

Gambhir played 108 matches for KKR and scored 3035 runs at an average of 31.61. He was greatly revered by his teammates as well as the Kolkata Knight Riders' owners for his commitment on the field.

Chennai Super Kings- Suresh Raina (147 matches)

Suresh Raina is one of the most experienced players in the IPL. Having played in the tournament since its inception, Raina has made 147 appearances for the Chennai Super Kings. Due to his all-round performances on the field, CSK have won the tournament thrice in their entire history so far.

He is also the aggregate leading run scorer in the Indian Premier League with 4144 runs at an average of 34.53. Being one of the best fielders in the world, Raina also holds the record of taking the most number of catches (95) in IPL.

Hence, due to his commitment and loyalty towards the team, Raina has almost featured in every match the Chennai Super Kings have played so far.

Mumbai Indians- Harbhajan Singh (136 matches)

Harbhajan Singh is one of the best players to ever play for the Mumbai Indians in their history. He has made a record 136 appearances for the team and has picked up 127 wickets at an average of 26.65.

For almost a decade, Harbhajan Singh was the frontline spinner for the Mumbai and regularly bowled economical overs for them. He paid rich dividends for the franchise by playing a pivotal role in helping them win the IPL thrice.

After he was sold to the Chennai Super Kings, Mumbai Indians lacked a specialist spinner last season and hence couldn't qualify for the playoffs.
