IPL 2019: Predicting the vice-captain of each team. 

#3 Kings XI Punjab

David Miller

Kings XI Punjab looked like the team to beat in the first half of last season and were set to finish on top of the league table. However, they ended the campaign in 7th position. Ravichandran Ashwin was excellent with his captaincy but he was let down by his teammates.

Yuvraj Singh was Ashwin's deputy last season but he was released, prior to the auction. David Miller is a prime candidate to replace him and take the duties as the team's vice-captain. The South African has captained them in the past and has been a part of the franchise for a long time. He was also seen captaining the Rainbow Nation in the T20I series against Pakistan and isn't short of leadership experience.

However, he will leave the tournament halfway through the season and KL Rahul can take up the responsibility after his departure. He captained India A in the unofficial test series against the England Lions recently and a stint as vice-captain could help him evolve as a player.

Final Say: David Miller (1st half)/ KL Rahul (2nd half)
