3 players KKR can retain for IPL 2025
- 1. Sunil Narine
- 2. Mitchell Starc
- 3. Varun Chakravarthy
Sunil Narine
KKR veteran, Sunil Narine was a game changer with both bat and the ball for KKR in IPL 2024. Opening the innings for his side, Narine played several brutal knocks with the bat to help his side post mammoth totals on the board. Narine was also terrific with the ball squeezing the opposition for runs during the middle-phase of the game.
Mitchell Starc
Australian ace pacer, Mitchell Starc proved his worth after becoming the costliest player in the IPL history. The left-arm pacer scalped a total of 17 wickets in just 13 games. He might be on of the players that KKR might retain ahead of IPL 2025 mega auction.
Varun Chakravarthy
Varun Chakravarthy finished as the second leading wicket-taker in the IPL 2024. The mystery spinner grabbed 21 wickets in 14 games. Varun also played a very crucial role for KKR during the playoff matches of the IPL 2024. KKR might stick with him for IPL 2025 as well.
