The former RCB captain was seen leading the team after regular captain Rajat Patidar walked off to get some treatment on his finger. Patidar suffered a finger injury during the 11th over of the Chennai Super Kings' innings.
And in doing so, Patidar ended up suffering the injury. He looked in pain straightaway as he was seen holding his right hand. The physio came out running before Patidar decided to leave the field to get more treatment.
Virat Kohli dons captain's hat:
