'Clueless, Fraud': KKR's Rs 23.75 Crore Buy Trolled Brutally For IPL 2025 Flop Show

He scored just 135 runs in 9 matches ahead of the DC clash and on Tuesday, he was dismissed by Axar Patel for just 7. Social media users were not happy with his disappointing run and Venkatesh was roasted massively over his form as well as his extravagant price tag.

“Will assess the conditions and try to restrict them to a lower total. You need to stay in the present. We wanted to focus on the process, not worry about the
