Royal Challengers Bangalore has not won a trophy under the captaincy of Virat Kohli.

However the new backroom staff has backed him as captain for the IPL season 2020. On Thursday (September 19), even as they announced a completely new support staff for the team, RCB made their intentions with regarding to the on-field leadership role clear when the team's newly-appointed director of cricket operations Mike Hesson ruled out any change in captaincy for the franchise.
"We don't have that perception that Virat controls things. But may be he has had his learnings from the past (mistakes) while moving forward," Hesson said during a media interaction. "There has been no question mark over Virat's captaincy during last couple of weeks (of discussions)," Hesson said
"...We have been very much aligned and he has been more than happy to take our advice from our experience," the former New Zealand coach added.
