Eoin Morgan Looks To Revive Fortunes Of KKR

​By a staff reporter :



Kolkata Knight Riders were off to a nightmare start in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 as they lost five of their first seven games. Before the tournament was halted midway, KKR were languishing at seventh place on the IPL 2021 points table. With their star overseas players in red-hot form ahead of the resumption of the T20 league, the forced break might just help Morgan to change the fortune of his side. Their star all-rounder Andre Russell is coming fresh off a successful campaign with the bat in the Caribbean Premier League where he smashed the fastest half-century in the history of the tournament achieving the milestone off just 14 deliveries. The Kolkata-based franchise will be without the most expensive player in IPL history -- Pat Cummins, as the Australian pulled out of the UAE leg of IPL 2021.
