IPL 2022 Retentions KKR: 4 Players Kolkata Knight Riders Can Retain Before the Mega Auction


IPL 2022 Retentions KKR: IPL 2022 retentions rules have been announced. So who will Kolkata Knight Riders retain? Read on to find out!

The men in Purple and Gold missed out on their third IPL title in 2021, as they lost in the final to CSK. However, with the mega auction coming up, they will have to rebuild their squad.

Here are the 4 players we expect that KKR will retain:

#4 – Shubman Gill

The prolific young batter had a good showing in the last season, and is a great talent to have in any team. The Knight Riders will definitely wish to enjoy his services in the next cycle as well!

#3 – Venkatesh Iyer

He took the IPL 2021 by storm in the UAE leg, and also was one of the major reasons why KKR entered the final!

Fast-bowling all-rounders are rare, and uncapped Indian ones even rarer! So KKR will definitely look to retain him.

#2 – Sunil Narine

Narine has been a long servant of KKR, and he has constantly re-invented himself to stay relevant. We do feel there is another IPL cycle left in him, and KKR would surely want it to be with them!

#1 – Varun Chakravarthy

From one mystery spinner to another, Chakravarthy has had an amazing season in 2021 with KKR! His bowling partnership with Narine will once again prove to be lethal, and is one which the KKR owners will not wish to break up just yet!

So these are the 4 players KKR can retain for next season! Next up in the series: Royal Challengers Bangalore!
