3 players who Kolkata Knight Riders can use as Impact Player in IPL 2024

The 2-time IPL champions Kolkata Knight Riders are raring to stake a claim on the title once again. It was a disappointing campaign for Kolkata in the last season as they finished in the 7th position. However, they have made some statement buys in the IPL auction which has made their team combination very interesting. In this article, we will take a look at 3 players who can be used as impact players by Kolkata Knight Riders in the upcoming season.

1. Suyash Sharma

The 20-year-old leg spinner Suyash Sharma was one of the players to watch out for in the last season. The franchise showed faith in the wrist spinner who had not played much first-class cricket and the move paid off as Suyash was one of the more successful bowlers for Kolkata in the last season. He was mostly used in an impact player role and the same can happen in the upcoming season as well.

2. Venkatesh Iyer

Venkatesh Iyer has become one of the most important players for KKR over the last few seasons. His ability to bat in various positions in the batting order has made him a significant figure in the plans of the franchise. However, his bowling potential was not used as much by the team in 2023 which resulted in him becoming an impact player. With various other all-rounders in the squad, Venkatesh Iyer might not get to bowl much in the upcoming season as well which makes him a probable option for the impact player role.

3. Vaibhav Arora

Another uncapped Indian bowler who can be seen as an impact player in the upcoming season. Vaibhav delivered some notable performances in the last season and he will surely be in the plans of the franchise in IPL 2024. KKR have some big overseas names in their squad which leaves space for only Indian players to be used as impact players and the fast bowler from Himachal might come on as an impact player whenever needed.
