Expectations ?
Kolkata has kept Jacquis Kallis as team mentor and batting consultant for 2017 season and they will need him alot looking at their possible batting lineup. Wasim Akram however left the team as bowling coach. Gambhir is very consistent in the opening slot but they need big hitters who can turn things around.
What are you expectations in the Auction ? what players you would like to see in Kolkata 2017 team ? let us know by commenting below.
i would love to see KKR go big on Yuvraj and then another all rounder option such as Ben Stokes.
