Kolkata Knight Riders all-rounder Venkatesh Iyer has spoken about the franchise's decision to release opening batter Shubman Gill before the 2022 Indian Premier League season. Iyer said, "Understand where they come from," urging fans to consider the team's perspective behind the move.
Gill, who had been with KKR since 2018, was not retained for the 2022 season and later joined Gujarat Titans. Iyer's comments highlight the strategic considerations that franchises face during player retention windows.
