Current Form: Kolkata Knight Riders
The Kolkata Knight Riders finally managed to click as a unit when they won against Mumbai Indians. KKR managed to stay alive post this win. Their hopes though are hanging on a thin line. KKR looked the side to beat in the first four games. They got off to a rollicking start winning three out of their first four games. KKR under a new captain looked solid.
But their campaign quickly unravelled post the initial euphoria. KKR’s selections and team combinations went awry. They seemed to have lost the plot completely. KKR lost 5 games on the trot. They changed openers more on hope than conviction. Just when it appeared that KKR will go the MI way they finally broke their losing streak. They won against RR but immediately lost their next game to LSG. KKR though with a win over MI is still hoping to qualify for the playoffs. They need to win everything and hope all results go their way.
