KKR performance in IPL 2021 so far

Kolkata Knight Riders undoubtedly, belong to the category of teams who are looking for a change of fortune. The two-time champions did not perform according to expectations and their ranking in the team standings is proof. Winning two games out of seven, KKR initially bagged a high spot in the team standings. This was at the time of suspension of the season. This makes it clear that Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) need to win almost all their remaining matches to qualify for the playoffs. Not to mention, a tough challenge is awaiting the Shah Rukh Khan-owned team and it is going to be interesting to see how they perform.

Notable players including captain Eoin Morgan, Dinesh Karthik, Andre Russell, and Sunil Narine need to step up to change KKR’s fortunes. Australian speedster Pat Cummins will not feature during the remaining season, and this is another reason why many are not convinced about KKR to bounce back in the competition. Nevertheless, the likes of Russell, Narine, and Morgan have played T20 globally and have immense experience. Hence, ruling KKR out of the competition is not wise for other teams. Meanwhile, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) resumes their IPL 2021 campaign against Royal Challengers Bangalore on September 20.
