The Indian opener on Wednesday said: “It is not that an Indian captaining an IPL franchise will have an advantage. Look at (Rajashtan Royals skipper) Shane Warne. How well he is motivating the Rajasthan Royals.

“Every team can play four foreigners. But one has to get the performance from the domestic players. And therein lies the challenge. Warne has handled the Indian players well. He gives them confidence,” he said.
