Discussion IPL 17 (2024) | Winner - Kolkata Knight Riders

[JackYU]

Why other franchises desperately helping MI so much? First it was GT gave away Hardik for 15crs when he could've easily gone for 17cr+ if released into auction. Now RCB agrees to buy overpriced Green to help MI get enough funds to buy hardik. Bro you should be making things difficult for them not easy!

We're left with only 23crs now and have to build the entire bowling lineup in that

RCB will regret leaving Hazlewood. He's crucial in white ball cricket with slowers , cutters etc . Also with 23 crs in hand, you can't go for big fish like Starc

They said availability issues with Hazlewood won't be there atleast for 1st half

He's expecting a child so he won't play for 1st half.

I think they're not going after bowling at all this time. They've realized even if you get world class bowlers like Hazlewood and Hasaranga, they are going to get tonked at home...
They are looking at an XI with hitters - minus Kohli - in their top 7. Doesn't matter if their bowling gets tonked at home as long as they consistently score 220+ at home.

After the Green blunder, Ideal top 7 for them:

Home + Wankhede	Away (except Wankhede)
1. Faf	1. Faf
2. Green	2. Kohli
3. Rajat	3. Rajat
4. Kohli (only if 2 wickets fall early)	4. Maxi
5. Maxi	5. Green
6. SRK (12-15cr)	6. SRK (12-15cr)
7. DK	7. Anuj

Bowlers:
8. Dagar/Himanshu/Hritik Shokeen (50L)
9. Siraj
10. Topley/Jhye Richardson or Willey (1cr)
11. Chetan Sakariya/Kartik Tyagi (4-5cr)

Impact: Suyash/Lomror

Batting covered 1-7 + impact provided all of them fire.
4 dedicated bowlers + Green (away)/Maxi (home) can bowl 4 and SRK can also roll his arm over.

He's expecting a child so he won't play for 1st half.

You wouldn't want to go in with a pacer if you already know that he is going to have availability issues.

Race to 20 cr
Starc vs harshal Patel bring it on

 

[Shark]

Gus atkinson is also a good bowler. Any team can Target him. I think he will be easily bought between 1-2cr. He has speed and good bowler of middle and death overs. RR should Target him as a backup of Trent boult.

Also Luke Wood & Matt Henry both are good

This man will be the key for DC again this time . The only danger that RCB has is him. He can alone pull off all the sum on 1 particular player
