Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) is closely monitoring the progress of Cameron Green as he works towards resuming his bowling duties in the Indian Premier League. The all-rounder, who has been recovering from an injury, has been gradually increasing his workload under supervision. KKR’s bowling coach, Tim Southee, has been in regular contact with Cricket Australia to ensure that Green’s comeback is managed carefully.

Green has been actively bowling at the nets in preparation for his return, but the team management is being cautious not to rush him back too soon. Southee emphasized the importance of building match fitness before expecting Green to bowl in a game.

With KKR looking to strengthen its pace resources, having Green available as a full-fledged all-round option could be crucial in shaping the team’s balance in upcoming matches.

In other news, KKR will be looking for a turnaround against Punjab Kings at Eden Gardens, following losses in their first two games. Franchise owner and Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan is expected to be in attendance for the match, which could boost team morale. His absence in the previous home game had caused speculation, but his presence on Monday is anticipated to lift spirits as KKR aims to regain momentum early in the season.
