The Indian season of the Premier League (IPL 2025), which stopped halfway due to the war between India and Pakistan, will resume from May 17. The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) defenders are mathematically in dispute over a place in the playoffs, although the probabilities are stacked against them.

To worsen his problems, the Kolkata outfit has received a blow to his last two games, since the Kock Quinton Wicktkeeper-Bater of Kock will not return for the rest of the tournament.

In particular, KKR’s management had decided to leave De Kock during the last games, bringing Rahmanullah Gurbaz in Afghanistan to open the tickets with Sunil Narine.

The 32 -year -old protease star, which was acquired by KKR by INR 3.6 million rupees, did not have the best season. In the seven games that QDK played, he managed to score 143 races at an average of 23.83 and a higher score of 97*.

On the other hand, the country partner and KKR teammate in Quinton, Anrich Nortje, will be available for the National Team when they face the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in their first game after the restart.
