"Challenges Are Everywhere": KKR Head Coach's Honest Take On New Skipper Nitish Rana

Kolkata Knight Riders head coach Chandrakant Pandit is hoping that their full time skipper Shreyas Iyer will return to action "very soon" and until then, he expects Nitish Rana to do well in the high-pressure leadership role. A recurring back injury is likely to keep Iyer out of action for the first half of the IPL. He had also missed the first and fourth Test against Australia due to the persistent back issues. "Whatever little cricket I have played or coached, I have never gone back over things like squad unavailability. Shreyas' absence will make a difference since he is important, but this is truly unfortunate. "We are hoping Shreyas will be back very soon and that will make a lot of difference to the team," Pandit said on Tuesday night.
