Unpopular opinion: Sunil Narine would’ve been a far better opener than Rahane for KKR. Rahane has played almost 0 impactful knocks as an opener, he bats way too slow, while Narine brings aggression from ball one and also solves the left-right combo alongside Allen.
Ajinkya Rahane in IPL 2026 -
Innings - 12
Runs - 251 (Lowest Among all Openers)
Avg - 22.8 (Lowest)
SR - 130.73 (3rd Lowest)
50s - 1 (Lowest)
How long will we back mediocrity?
If this match isn’t the final nail in the coffin for Rahane’s KKR stint, then it’s genuinely a shame.
Just like Vaibhav Arora, he should be dropped from the next match.
@KKRiders It's high time if you have shame just throw #ajinkyarahane from the team.. He has been waste so far. Look at his Sr. It is 121 and super flop. From which angle he is opener? Loser #IPL2026#kkrvGT
@KKRiders
At this point I just wait for Rahane to get out as early as possible because this shameless guy won't put the team first above him.
Ruining an entire season with full responsibility
#KKRvsGT As I was saying, Rahane is just swinging the bat blindly without even assessing the ball or where it’s pitching. Feels like he has only one shot in his arsenal right now. What a recruitment masterclass from KKR management this season.
The Lotus blooms in West Bengal!
The 2026 West Bengal Assembly Elections will be remembered forever. People's power has prevailed and BJP's politics of good governance has triumphed. I bow to each and every person of West Bengal.
The people have given a spectacular mandate to BJP and I assure them that our Party will do everything possible to fulfil the dreams and aspirations of the people of West Bengal. We will provide a Government that ensures opportunity and dignity to all sections of society.

KKR OWNER SHAH RUKH KHAN TAKES THE ACCOUNTABILITY OF FAN'S EMOTIONS AND A LETTER SHALL BE ISSUED AS WELL AS A TOUGH STATEMENT FOR REFORMATION OF THE TEAM.
KKR CEO VENKY MYSORE RESIGN ASAP.
RAHANE AND NAYAR SHOULD RESIGN AFTER THIS MATCH OR KKR SHOULD SACK THEM IMMEDIATELY.
As a hardcore Kolkata Knight Riders fan, this is getting painful to watch.
Ajinkya Rahane playing a 1(10) in the powerplay.
Time to put the team first step down as captain and rethink the approach.
Unleash Sunil Narine at the top. That’s the X-factor we’re wasting
#kkr#ipl
Even after today's match if Narine isn't send to open for KKR.
There is definitely some issue with the management.
Also other concerns are if camron green cannot bowl why not try rachin ravindra instead of give chance to inform sheffit
