IPL 2026: Ajinkya Rahane says quitting captaincy never crossed his mind

Kolkata Knight Riders captain Ajinkya Rahane said thoughts of stepping down never crossed his mind despite the side's disastrous start to the IPL season, adding that it is important to show character when the team is struggling. The former champions endured a miserable start to their IPL campaign, losing five of their opening six matches and sinking to the bottom of the points table.

"For me, I've played cricket all my life with a good attitude. Character has always been very important for me," Rahane said at the post match press conference after the team's last game of the season. KKR lost by 40 runs against Delhi Capitals on Sunday.

It was the third fracture the spinner sustained this season, having earlier played through two finger fractures on his non-bowling left hand. "See, our team's physios and the physios of BCCI and the Indian team, there was a discussion among them. I don't get involved in that at all. That's their department. My department is how's the player's mindset, does the player want to play or not, how big is the risk?" Rahane told reporters after KKR's final league match on Sunday. "Yes, it's important to consider the health factor, to stay fit. Your injuries shouldn't increase. Yes, we think about that. But the physios felt that
