KKR SWOT Analysis: Will Kolkata Knight Riders Clinch Their Third Indian Premier League Trophy?

After an underwhelming season last time around, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will be eager to make a strong start to their Indian Premier League 2024 campaign under the leadership of Shreyas Iyer.

He is in danger of missing the initial matches of the IPL,” a source told Times Of India in the report.

Shreyas Iyer's Poor Ranji Trophy Form Continues, Loses Wicket Cheaply To Ex-KKR Teammate

Shreyas Iyer's dismal form in domestic cricket continued as he was dismissed after scoring just seven runs for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy final against Vidarbha on Sunday.

Umesh bowled four short deliveries in a row to the right-hander before an outswinger that struck Iyer's inside edge. The ball flew to Karun Nair in the first slip and the fielder made no mistake in completing the catch and piled on Iyer's misery.
