IPL 2018 Auction: 4 best buys by Kolkata Knight Riders
It's that time of the year, and we are talking about the IPL auction again. This year's auction was a little different, as many franchises had to select a different set of players entirely.
Kolkata Knight Riders are known for their smart picks, which has reflected in their performance so far. In the first 10 editions of the tournament they have been the second most successful side in terms of titles won.
Here are 4 smart picks by Knight Riders that can make a huge impact this year.
Chris Lynn
'Lynnsanity' is a familiar term in the T20 leagues these days, the reason being Chris Lynn's destructive show with the bat. He has the 5th highest strike rate in IPL history and was brilliant for KKR last year scoring 295 runs at a massive strike rate of 180.98.
Just like last year, his partnership with Sunil Narine can cause many headaches for other teams this time around as well.
