<p>The Kolkata Knight Riders were one of those sides in the IPL who gave it their all to make their mark among the rest of the sides this year. The team made immense impact both with the bat and the ball. The team played some fantastic cricket throughout the tournament but still failed to reach the playoffs narrowly after they finished 6th in the points table at the end of the league stages.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Despite brilliant combined performances from all the players some irregular and inconsistent droughts midway between the tournament cost them a place in the top 4 in the opinion of most of the cricket experts. Thus the overall result achieved by the franchise despite picking a fair amount of food players in the auction ahead of this season was a worth forgetting one.&nbsp;</p>



<p>In spite of ending the season on a low the team will be trying to take the maximum amount of positives from this season which includes the fantastic form and rhythm displayed by some of the team's individuals who gave it their all to help their side cross the line.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Kolkata Knight Riders: Predictions for IPL 2023</h2>



<p>The side displayed great courage and enthusiasm throughout the tournament this year as it managed to rip apart several strong teams under tough circumstances during the league stages. The knights also found the able leadership of a young Shreyash Iyer and made the most of it to derive the best possible results.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Despite a poor show midway during the season which led to their elimination in the league stages itself, it seriously is impossible to rule the team out in the upcoming season as well.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The team already is equipped with some brilliant batting and bowling superstars and will definitely be looking to fill up the gaps they left vacant this season. With the likes of players like Andre Russel, Rinku Singh, Umesh Yadav and many others hitting peak form this season the franchise will be looking to add a bit more quality to their squad during the mini auction ahead of IPL 2023.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The team management will expectedly be looking to go after a proper opening batsman who could solve their miseries at the top of the order in the upcoming season. With all the plans going accordingly, the Knights are surely going to triumph next season with a confirmed top 4 finish.&nbsp;</p>

The Addition was a great move, and Gautam Gambhir's presence in the auction led KKR to have some good buys.</p>



<p>Kolkata Night Riders had one of the highest purse values in the IPL 2024 Auction, which led them to go for some big names in their squad. However, there were quality bowlers in their team at high prices, which wasn't needed from KKR as they had some better options. The Addition of Mitchell Starc for 24.75 crore to the squad is pretty much overpriced, as he returns after eight years in the IPL.</p>



<p>The Addition of young players is a good move from Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), as these players might be the team's future. KS Bharat was bought as a backup wicket-keeper, whereas Chetan Sakariya and Ramandeep Singh were bought for 50 Lakh each.</p>



<p>Overall, KKR did well, and they almost filled all their gaps from batting to bowling. However, The Inexperience in the top order is still a concern for them, but they have a strong middle order, including Skipper Shreyas Iyer, Nitish Rana, Rinku Singh, and Andre Russell.</p>

<p><strong>KKR Squad IPL 2024:</strong> A big change in the Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) Squad as they announced the Sri Lankan pacer Dushmantha Chameera as the replacement of the English pacer Gus Atkinson. </p>



<p>Atkinson, who has not yet appeared in the IPL, was picked by KKR in the December 2023 IPL Auction at his base price of INR 1 Crore. During the auction, Chameera, whose initial bid was INR 50 Lakh, had no buyers.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/Gus-Atkinson-5-1-1024x759.jpg" alt="BIG Change in KKR Squad Ahead of IPL 2024 As KKR Ropes in Chameera as Replacement For Gus Atkinson" class="wp-image-126797" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Gus Atkinson in his T20I debut</figcaption></figure>



<p>Gus Atkinson made his T20I and ODI debut for England during the home series against New Zealand in 2023. His first T20I game was just like a dream debut where he scalped 4 wickets against New Zealand including big names like Devon Conway and Tim Seifert. In the second game, he got two big wickets in the context of the game of Glenn Phillips and Daryl Mitchell.</p>



<p>He didn't get any wicket in his ODI debut, he was impressive though. He played 9 ODIs and 3 T20Is and has picked up a total of 17 wickets. Overall, he has played 46 T20s so far and has taken 62 wickets.</p>



<p>Known for his pace and lateral movement, Chameera can cause hitters problems with his swing and seam movements. He played for the Rajasthan Royals in the 2018 and the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 2021 IPL seasons, respectively.</p>



<p>In the 2022 season, he played for the Lucknow Super Giants, taking nine wickets in 12 games. In the IPL 2024 auction, he was passed over by every franchise. Over the past year, Chameera has struggled with injuries frequently. Due to knee and shoulder issues, he could not participate in the Asia Cup or the ICC World Cup in 2023.</p>



<h5 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>KKR Ropes in Chameera</strong></h5>



<p>IPL Officials released a media advisory to confirm the report. They wrote "<strong><em>Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have named Dushmantha Chameera as a replacement for England pacer Gus Atkinson for the upcoming edition of the TATA Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.</em></strong>"</p>
