Kolkata Knight Riders' "dismal show" in IPL 2022: Kevin Pietersen explains the reasons


Previous England cricketer Kevin Pietersen figures Kolkata Knight Riders are too great a group to mope at the base portion of the focuses table in the IPL 2022. The Shreyas Iyer-drove side began the fifteenth release of IPL with guarantee however its structure tightened as the competition advanced. The other participants of the past season haven't had the option to satisfy the hopes as they lost five games on the jog halfway through the season. While breaking down KKR's slide and flip-flop show in the IPL 2022, Pietersen accused the steady hacking and changing in the playing eleven.


Talking on 'Cricket Live' on Star Sports, Pietersen said: "A lot of slashing and changing has been a justification for KKR's grim show on the grounds that the players believe it's their last game and they must perform or they may be out. I don't think this is the correct approach in this arrangement of the game."


"This organization is tied in with developing the players, giving them the certainty and assisting them with feeling like the group they're associated with, the brand they are related with, and the band they're playing for are committed. The players need to feel like they have the responsibility, they need to feel like they can give that responsibility and I don't think you give that responsibility assuming there is a lot cleaving and transforming," he added.


Lucknow Super Giants have been a group to beat this season however the KL Rahul-drove side has still not booked the end of the season games compartment subsequent to experiencing two sequential losses.


Discussing LSG's consecutive losses and their ongoing structure Pietersen said the groups can't stand to get self-satisfied at the business end of the competition and LSG ought to hope to get those two essential focuses and book the season finisher compartment.


Pietersen added: "It's significant business now. You can feel far better as you can in the four or five weeks of this competition yet you can feel dejected assuming that you play inadequately now at the business end of the competition. So the folks at the highest point of the table like Lucknow need to get those two critical focuses against Kolkata Knight Riders and secure their end of the season games compartment."


As the nightfall looms on the gathering phases of IPL, Kolkata Knight Riders take on the Lucknow Super Giants on Wednesday to start off the last round of the association apparatuses.


The hierarchy of the IPL is dubiously positioned and excepting Gujarat Titans, any group can be taken out right now, and, surprisingly, the group with the smallest possibility creating the end of the season games can be a piece of the eliminator and qualifier.
