KKR set to remain unchanged but Rahane’s place in doubt
KKR Playing XI vs SRH: IPL 2022 Live Updates – Kolkata Knight Riders suffered a heavy defeat against Delhi Capitals in the last game.

With KKR set to deal with SRH’s resurgence on Friday, Shreyas Iyer will have to take the BIG call on whether to drop Rahane for Baba Indrajith who has impressed internally.

On the other hand, KKR has open options on Nitish Rana and Sunil Narine in addition to Aaron Finch and Baba Indrajith, who is waiting for an opportunity.
The Tamil Nadu striker has been in fine form in domestic cricket in all three formats of the game. He can get off to an explosive start as an opener while also anchoring innings when needed.
KKR Playing XI vs SRH: Should Rahane be abandoned?
- Ajinkya Rahane scored a valuable 44 as KKR beat CSK in the opener.
- But in the last four innings, Rahane has managed three single-digit scores.
- KKR can push Nitish Rana to open while having Sam Billings at No. 4 and Rinku Singh at No. 5.
- The other option is to play Baba Indrajith with Venkatesh Iyer in the opening without cutting and changing much.
- Aaron Finch is the other opening option, but that will likely be ruled out as Pat Cummins, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine and wicketkeeper Sam Billings take the place of four outsiders.
