Talking about Kolkata Knight Riders, this time they have completed their squad with 21 players. This time the KKR team had made the highest bid of Rs 23.75 crore in the auction and included Venkatesh Iyer in their squad.
Who will be the new captain of the team?
Kolkata Knight Riders team looks very strong this time. However, they have not bought captain Shreyas Iyer, who made them champion last season. Shreyas Iyer will play for Punjab Kings team this time.
