8. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) – Nitish Rana, Shreyas Iyer, Rinku Singh and Narayan Jagadeesan
Rating: 7/10
The Kolkata Knight Riders have an extremely compromising set-up as they lack proper openers, a middle order, and an outfielder. Their middle order is anchored by Shreyas Iyer, as the skipper was found laying the foundation of the KKR batting innings in 2022.
The skipper is acutely supported by a decent group of players like Nitish Rana, KKR wonder man Rinku Singh, and the immensely talented rising star Jagadeesan in IPL 2023. What KKR lacks is not form or talent; they lack balance and experience to match the international caliber and tackle different situations.
