RCB opener Devdutt Padikkal, who had a great debut season, singled out his contest against world's no.1 Test bowler Pat Cummins as the most enjoyable one of the season. He also added he knew he had to make an instant impact in the IPL as it's a tough tourney to master if you don't start well.

There has been a lot of debate regarding the Indian team captaincy on the basis of IPL performances but Aakash Chopra has asserted that Indian players shouldn't be judged on IPL. He stated that Kohli's lack of IPL wins as captain shouldn't be a parameter to judge him for India captaincy. 

Aakash Chopra, post the conclusion of IPL 2020, has questioned people who have raised their voice on Virat Kohli’s captaincy, asking if RCB would have won if Kohli wasn’t their skipper. He also added that if you look at it from the other side, Kohli has helped RCB reach the last four twice.

Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan picked his IPL XI of the tournament and left out Indian superstars Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma from the XI. He made Kieron Pollard, who had acted as Mumbai Indians' stand-in-skipper in absence of Rohit Sharma, as the captain of the XI that he picked.
