KKR stumble again against RR. Kolkata Knight Riders managed to post just 133/9 on a good batting surface in Mumbai after their big guns failed yet again.
This puts them in the last spot of the table with only one win from the five matches played. They’ve lost all four of their last games.
What are the reasons as to why they’ve been struggling so much this season?
One twitter user had this to say:
Not a KKR fan in particular but three overseas need to change.
Drop Morgan, Narine. Play Lockie and one of Shakib or Seifert. https://t.co/mZYzuaojgI

Considering the poor back-to-back performances by Morgan and Narine, maybe it might make more sense if they tried to play Lockie and Shakib or Seifert and see if they can improve. They anyway have nothing to lose.
Another twitter user had this to say:
Kkr didn't even bid for a top order batsman this year, and that only showed they didn't think of it as a problem.

Maybe the reason of their failure is a poor batting line-up at the top order.
