Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) – Eoin Morgan

The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) skipper, Eoin Morgan came under scrutiny for his leadership after KKR’s poor performance in IPL 2021. They suffered 5 matches out of 7 and finished at the 7th spot in the points table before IPL 2021 got suspended. Moreover, KKR also consists of strong overseas players like Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, and Shakib-al-Hasan, whom they can choose to retain in IPL 2022. Morgan has scored only 92 runs in the tournament in 7 matches and he can bid goodbye to Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2022.

Mumbai Indians (MI) – Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav has been playing a crucial role in Mumbai Indians’ middle-order. However, for the domestic players, Mumbai Indians might go for Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, and Hardik Pandya as they were also retained ahead of IPL 2018. Therefore, Mumbai Indians might have to release Suryakumar Yadav and other franchises will be eager to buy him during IPL 2022 auction.
