IPL 2021 RR vs KKR: Kolkata Knights Riders (KKR) Predicted XI

IPL 2021-RR vs KKR-Kolkata Knights Riders (KKR) Predicted XI: Kolkata Knight Riders will play Rajasthan royals  at 7:30 pm in Mumbai

1. Shubman Gill: Shubman Gill was out for a duck against CSK, but he is too good a talent to let go.

2. Nitish Rana: Nitish Rana has been the in-form top-order batsman for KKR, having hit two half-centuries from four matches. In the last game.

3. Rahul Tripathi: Rahul Tripathi is a fidgety player, but one who is also very effective. The biggest challenge he needs to ace is to not throw away starts.

4. Andre Russell: Andre Russell put on quite the show the other night against CSK, hammering 54 off just 22 balls with three fours and six sixes. Had it not been for a brain-fade moment that led to his dismissal.

5. Eoin Morgan (Captain): World Cup winning captain Eoin Morgan has not had the greatest of runs with the bat or as captain. With scores of 2, 7, 29 and 7, Morgan’s form has been a bit of a concern for KKR. He is a terrific T20 batsman and if he’s batting at No. 4

6. Dinesh Karthik (Wicketkeeper): One of the most experienced batsmen, Dinesh Karthik showed glimpses of his explosive batting in the last game against CSK, smashing 40 off 24 with four fours and two sixes. He needs to continue batting with the same intensity as that’s when he’s most dangerous.

7. Sunil Narine: The niggle no longer persists and Sunil Narine is good to go. Narine picked up 1/31 against CSK but his figures aren’t a true picture of how good he looked. The variations were back and he often surprised Faf du Plessis and Ruturaj Gaikwad with his stock deliveries. The more he bowls, the better he will get.

8. Pat Cummins: Pat Cummins once again proved his credentials as he nearly pulled off a stunning chase for KKR. Had he not had a shortage of batting partners, who knows… he could have done the unthinkable. However, Cummins the bowler went for plenty against CSK, leaking 58 runs from his four overs. That needs to change of KKR are to keep RR to a minimum.

9. Harbhajan Singh: Harbhajan is most effective when opening the bowling or operating inside the Powerplay. Playing an extra spinner could benefit KKR against RR, whose top order is also guilty of not scoring runs.

10. Varun Chakravarthy: CSK pummeled KKR for 220 runs, of which only 27 came off Varun Chakravarthy’s four overs. The off-spinner has been in fine form, getting wickets early and keeping the batsmen quiet. With RR’s batsmen already struggling, Chakravarthy would prove to be an ace up Morgan’s sleeves

11. Kamlesh Nagarkoti: Young Kamlesh Nagarkoti bowled just two overs against CSK and gave away 25 runs. KKR must look to utilise Nagarkoti more as a bowler. Nagarkoti is a decent batsman and the Knight Riders could also benefit from his batting even though he is expected to bat last.
