The IPL is all set to begin on 19th September and all teams are all geared to get on the fields. While teams have been training for 20 days now, players have been joining the squads at different times. Some were busy with the Cpl while the others were on national duty. Just like the other players, KKR’s head coach McCullum was also busy with the CPL and landed in UAE after the season ended.
Even though the head coach wasn’t around, the team practised in full swing under the support staff’s and the skipper’s guidance. After finishing a mandatory quarantine period the coach has taken to the grounds.
Kolkata Knight Riders are led by skipper Dinesh Karthik and the side has won the IPL trophy twice in the past. With new world-class additions to their side, the team is eyeing the IPL trophy this year.
World Cup-winning captain Eoin Morgan, explosive batsman Andre Russel and the most expensive overseas player Pat Cummins are all part of the KKR’s camp.
The Australian and English cricketers have reached the UAE after finishing the limited over series in England. The Kolkata kNight Riders will begin their campaign on 23rd September 2020 against the defending champions Mumbai Indians.
