RE: Indian Premier League T20 Cricket - Teams Review - Part 2 - Review of DC and KKR

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

I agree that the signing of Shakib is a smart move for KKR, they are, as you say, over-reliant on several players who appear to be past their best in the form of Russell, Narine and Karthik. I think it could be a big season for Nitish Rana who is coming off the back of some good domestic form

Nicely summed up about KKR's old horses, but I feel Andre Russel will find his touch once again this year.

As for as Nitish Rana is concerned, yes, he will be an important player for them once again but what I observed is, he will be very aggressive during the initial stage of the tournament, but he loses form and gas towards the fag end of the league stage and he will be like a burden to the playing XI, hope the KKR team will take care of that and handles him well.

Super excited to bring out these reviews as well as match day details.

Good day bro :)

The pressure is on Rana to be more aggressive because the likes of Shubman Gill aren't free scorers in th PP. I'm a big fan of Shubman Gill and have been ever since I saw him play U-19s for India but he is a little one-paced for T20 cricket. KKR could probably do with a more dynamic player in the top 3 to help support Gill and Rana. Sunil Narine used to be dangerous but I think teams have worked out how to bowl against him and he doesn't have the game to adapt.

Yep, Shubman Gill is someone suited more for test cricket, but, he has that capability to adapt as he shown in some of the ODI's.

Who knows, KKR may come up with another pinch hitter or may be Rahul Tripathi may open and I always think he is best suited as an opener.

Have a good day :)
