Steve Smith is a noteworthy candidate on this list. He also brings in the captaincy trait along with his batting skills. The two teams would look for an in-built captain as they could build the team around him according to his suggestion as well, for which Smith could be any of the two team’s first choice.

Smudge, as called by the cricketing fraternity stepped into the IPL first time as a replacement for Jesse Ryder in 2010 for RCB. He then consistently represented Rajasthan from 2014-16 and after the suspension of the team, he was made to represent Rising Pune Supergiants for two years in which his stint as a captain in 2017 made the team finish as runners.

He then re-entered Royals in 2018 and after 3 years, he was picked by Delhi Capitals and might not be retained now. So a team looking for a batter who could captain the side as well would be his description and has a high chance of leading one of the two sides.
