Kolkata Knight Riders Face Tough Decisions Ahead of IPL 2025 Mega Auction

The Chief Executive Officer of Kolkata Knight Riders, Venky Mysore, recently discussed the complexities involved in the decision-making process for the upcoming IPL 2025 mega auction. With the team required to narrow down their squad to just six retentions, Mysore described the decision regarding player Shreyas Iyer as particularly challenging.

Following their triumph in the previous season, the Kolkata Knight Riders find themselves in a difficult position as they attempt to strike a balance between rewarding past performances and planning strategically for the future. The term “Not A One Way Street” used by Mysore encapsulates the intricate nature of the retention decisions, highlighting the necessity for mutual agreement and the tough reality that not all preferred players can be retained.
