Kolkata Knight Riders – Over the years
The KKR team is one of the most promising side in the history of IPL. The intensity and uniqueness of their game makes the fans watch all their matches with joy, regardless of the team that they play against. Starting from 2012, this team has managed to win two IPL titles so far. This team is also famous due to its large star ownership base like Shah Rukh and Juhi Chawla. They have had the best players from all across the world in their lineup and this is one such team which has hugely been depending on overseas players. We hope the 2022 mega auction goes out well for KKR and we can expect the third biggie to come home soon.
KKR FANBASE
Like all other teams KKR too has a very strong fanbase, we could infact call them die-hard fans. The craze for their home team in Kolkata is definitely convincing. People stand in queues for five to six hours just to see their favorite team play in the Eden Gardens. KKR also has got a lot of Bollywood fans and some south strengths too. We hope the IPL 2022 goes well for all the KKR fans and hopefully permits them to cheer for KKR in the stadium. AMI KKR!!!
Contenders For Retention
- Dinesh Karthik
- Andre Russell
- Pat Cummins
- Shubman Gill
- Sunil Narine
- Shakib Al Hassan
Possible Players To Be Retained
ANDRE RUSSELL
SHUBMAN GILL
PAT CUMMINS
Other possible combinations can include Andre Russell, Dinesh Karthik and Sunil Narine/Shakib Al Hassan. Eoin Morgan and Narine has got very few chances to continue in the purple jersey henceforth due to their lack of consistency and lack in captaincy by Morgan. On the other hand Karthik too is at the dropping edge. The team will mostly look to drop him for a better player. We hope the above mentioned players will be retained in the mega auctions.
NOTE– The players added for retention above are only my predictions. This prediction is not officially confirmed by the franchise.
