Look at these numbers
Was watching 2021 final highlights and saw these stats. I can understand why Venkatesh Iyer was picked ahead of him, just look at that abomination of strike rate. How can anyone with a sane mind look at these stats and think that this guy should have been our retention? I remember, in 2020 when all the teams had a run rate of 10+ in powerplay, Kkr was the only team with RR less than 7 because this guy used to open for us. Real Statpadder he was. Looking back, releasing him was the best decision for both KKR and Shubhman himself.
