Venky Mysore, CEO of Kolkata Knight Riders, is backing the team despite their struggles this season. He encouraged the players to take inspiration from the team’s turnaround in the 2014 season, where they won the title after a slow start. With only six points in eight matches, KKR faces a tough road to the playoffs, needing to win at least five of their remaining six matches. Mysore highlighted the team’s resilience, mentioning their successful campaigns in 2014 and 2021. He emphasized that anything can happen in the format of the game and urged fans not to get too caught up in the league table, as the IPL is known for its unpredictability. The franchise has brought back former assistant coach Abhishek Nayar to help the struggling batters, with skipper Ajinkya Rahane expressing joy at his return. Rahane described Nayar as an invaluable part of the KKR ecosystem. The team is looking to regroup and reset as they aim to turn their season around.
