Straight Drive 4,512 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 (edited) Gill is big problem at top of the order unless he starts treating IPL as a T20 game rather than as ODI. His strike rate (117) was like Rahane or probably even worse . KKR tried hitter in Banton but he failed in conditions very different to him. Too add to opening issues of Gill, Tripathi joined Gill by playing at below par strike rate of 127. I am surprised with Baz in the camp how is he allowing such mediocre approach by top order batsmen in power plays. Pace bowling is a worry. Only 36 wickets were taken by pace attack comprising of Cummins, Prasidh, Mavi, Fergusson , Nagarkoti and Warrier. Pacers need to drastically improve their wicket taking performance this time.

SK_IH 9,483 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Hope to see Venkat Iyer opening alongside Gill. Morgan & Baz should back this young duo this year to deliver. There is enough batting depth to make amends in case of failures. Also Vaibhav Arora looks good, should definitely get a chance. Most importantly I am looking forward to Kuldeep getting back in the reckoning. I have my doubts about Varun's success this year, batsmen will come out prepared.

Scarface 373 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 KKR look the team to beat this season.Morgan using Cummins against Bairstow to break the game open was superb - one of the best T20 captains going around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
