Even after a promising start to the tournament, Mahipal Lomror has not delivered in the last few games. Given his  current form, one can ignore Lomror as the C or VC. 

Ajinkya Rahane (CSK)

The veteran Indian batter has been trusted throughout the tournament by the management. But Rahane has not been able to deliver as per expectations. So, he could be a player that can be ignored as the C or VC.
