All Blacks centre Conrad Smith will captain the Hurricanes in the Super 15 next season.
All Blacks number eight Victor Vito had also been in the running but the 30-year-old Smith has been given the nod.
Coach Mark Hammett told the Dominion Post that Smith is hugely excited about the role.
The Hurricanes have lost a lot of experience through the departure of All Blacks Aaron Cruden, Andrew Hore, Hosea Gear, Piri Weepu and Ma'a Nonu to rival franchises.
