Kevin Pietersen may lead Bangalore Royal Challengers in IPL

Former England Captain Kevin Pietersen has been brought by the franchises of Bangalore Royal Challengers for 1.55 million. This is the highest deal of the BCCI organized Indian Premier League. Indian skipper MS Dhoni was this title owner for last year. For the second season of the IPL T20 the action was held in Goa on last Friday.

"This scenario is a very strong possibility but a final decision is yet to be taken," the source said. "Shane Warne was denied the captaincy in Australia, and look what he did in the IPL last year (Warne's Rajasthan Royals won the tournament). We expect KP will have a point to prove too with regards to captaincy, and that will only benefit the team."


From this paragraph, I think you could not understand anything. It hopes that England former captain Kevin Pietersen could lead the Bangalore Royal Challengers team in the upcoming Indian Premier League that will be held in April this year.

"We bought Kevin to improve our whole profile, which goes beyond cricket. Kevin has great, eye-catching cricketing skills. He is also a very marketable guy. He is a product who can go across India and he might be an ideal captain over four weeks or so."


This is a real though that the team need to improve its players profile. The performances during the tour of West Indies and his strong leading capacity has bought out the opportunity to lead the team. Last year the team was marched by Indian former Captain Rahul Dravid. May be, the team Bangalore Royal Challengers will be leaded by Kevin Pietersen earlier two weeks. Later, the responsible will be handed over to Rahul Dravid or Mark Boucher.
