[size=16]IPL 2014: http://freetvu.blogspot.com/ Knight Riders - http://freetvu.blogspot.com/[/size]
They defeated the mighty urban center Super Kings to win their maiden IPL title in 2012, that raised the extent of expectations from the Gautam Gambhir-led aspect. however they unsuccessful really last year, wherever they won simply six out of sixteen matches and were graded third from all-time low.
It isn`t that the squad lacked quality players. they'd a formidable skipper in Gautam Gambhir, a maverick spinner in Sunil Narine, a legendary all arounder in Jacques Kallis, and nonetheless they did not live up to the expectations.
Even this year, they need a really balanced outfit.
Ahead of the IPL seven auctions, the team management in all probability targeted on shopping for pacers for the team, with speculations being rife that the seventh edition may be shifted to Republic of South Africa. albeit they managed to urge some world category speedsters, their arrange might currently backfire, as IPL`s initial section are command within the UAE.
Kolkata have continually lacked the killer instinct. besieged things, they need hardly had players, WHO were up for the challenge with a counter-attack. The team management has once more shown religion in Yusuf Pathan – WHO contend some blistering knocks within the initial phases of the tournament, and if he gets going this IPL, KKR might probably aim at their second title.
Gautam Gambhir is one player WHO has been terribly consistent for the team. Ever since he took over the post from Sourav Ganguly, he has been a force to reckon with. The southpaw has been discarded by the Indian selectors for quite your time, despite him doing well within the domestic season. Considering India’s approaching tours to England and Australia, Gambhir would once more need to continue his sensible run within the IPL, to prove some extent that he still has in him to play at the international level.
Key signings: Robin Uthappa, Manish Pandey, Chris Lynn, Morne Morkel, Pat Cummins, Umesh Yadav, Vinay Kumar.
Strength: If you inspect the KKR squad for IPL seven, you would possibly suppose they haven`t created abundant changes, till you reach the list of the pacers. KKR spent heavily to shop for pace bowlers and succeeded in obtaining Morkel, Pat Cummins, Umesh Yadav, VRV Singh and Vinay Kumar.
Weakness: albeit metropolis once more showed large religion in Jacques Kallis, the South African legend is perhaps not the correct player for the shortest format of the sport currently, as he takes his time at first to attain runs and if he fails, the team comes besieged considering the balls he consumes. They additionally trust massively on Gambhir, and just in case if he's pink-slipped early, the probabilities of KKR fighting back ar rare.
Squad:
Indian players: Gautam Gambhir, Manvinder Bisla, Piyush Chawla, Debabrata Das, Kuldeep Yadav, Sayan Mondal, Manish Pandey, Yusuf Pathan, Veer Pratap Singh, Robin Uthappa, Vinay Kumar, Suryakumar Yadav, Umesh Yadav
