KKR's CEO Venky Mysore revealed why the franchise named Ajinkya Rahane the full-time skipper ahead of Madhya Pradesh all-rounder Venkatesh Iyer. He said, "Clearly, we think very well of Venkatesh Iyer, but at the same time, it [captaincy] is taxing on a youngster. We have seen lots of people having lots of challenges with it [handling captaincy]."
