IPL 2022 Auction, KKR Retentions: Kolkata Knight Riders can Retain these 4 players in the Team
Andre Russell
When you hear the name, you think of a stormy inning. Who alone can turn the match around. You can attack any bowler and run the bat. Not just with the bat, Russell has been an important bowler for KKR in the last few seasons, especially in the death overs. Russell put pressure on the opposition with several wickets in the death overs.
Sunil Narine
Won many matches for West Indian Knight Riders. He has been a consistent name in the squad since 2012. His spin with the ball helped KKR win the 2012 and 2014 IPL. He has proved himself as a match – a winner with the bat if necessary. An IPL legend, KKR could benefit at any time with its all-around contribution. Narine should be the best pick.
Venkatesh Iyer
The left-handed batsman from Madhya Pradesh became the match winner of the Knights in the second round of IPL 2021. Leading the KKR team to second place and joining the Indian team in a short time. Despite being a normal batsman, he has also proved himself to be an easy choice in bowling. Team India now has a batsman who can easily bowl four overs in the shortest format of the game.
Varun Chakraborty
A Tamil Nadu ‘mystery spinner’ has won the title which has already given him a chance in the national team. His performance in 2021 was even better. Because he finished as the leading wicket-taker of the Knight Riders with 18 wickets in 16 matches. He was also part of India’s T20 World Cup squad.
Shubhman Gill
Gill is the first choice opener for KKR since 2016. The 22-year-old has grown up year after year. He is currently the opener of the Indian team in the longest format of the game. He is a very reliable person. KKR will not think twice about holding Punjab.
