The pressure that comes with leading an IPL team and the fact that he has a young family could have played a big role in Virat Kohli deciding to quit as captain of RCB after the completion of this year’s edition of the lucrative tournament, feels former South African pace spearhead Dale Steyn.

“He’s been with RCB from the very beginning. I don’t know, as life goes on you start to prioritise things. He’s [Virat] got a young family right now and captaincy can weigh heavily on the brain, and your personal life can also heavily weigh on you,” said Steyn to T20 Time Out on ESPNCricinfo on Monday.
