3 captaincy options for Rajasthan Royals in case Steve Smith is not available at the start of IPL 2020

RR will miss their Australian and England players due to quarantine rules in IPL 2020.

Jaydev Unadkat | IANSJaydev Unadkat is the logical choice for captaining Rajasthan Royals (RR) for the first few games, given that he led Saurashtra to their maiden Ranji Trophy victory recently and seemingly the RR team management have a lot of faith in him.

Don't mind IPL 2020 happening outside India, says Jaydev Unadkat

He was bought in the auction for 3 crores by RR despite picking just 22 wickets in the last two seasons of the IPL at a horrendous economy of 10.15. Overall, Unadkat has 77 wickets in 73 IPL matches with a best of 5/25 and has a hat-trick to his name.

The left-arm pacer is also experienced in leadership roles in domestic cricket and RR might want to give him the captaincy based on his success for Saurashtra.
