First thing first, they need to find a new captain in the auction. It will be interesting to see whether they buy back Shreyas Iyer or not.

Apart from the captain, KKR will have to find an able opening partner for Sunil Narine, who paired up with Phil Salt at the top to provide blistering starts in the PowerPlay during the IPL 2024. KKR openers played a key role in their success during the last edition.

The likes of Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, and Ramandeep Singh, Knight Riders gives KKR a solid firepower but they need to find a batter, who could give solidity at No. 3 or 4.
