Dinesh Karthik will lead the Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2020 and he will be helped off the field by the new coach Brendon McCullum, who has played a lot of cricket against the former.
The thirteenth edition of the IPL is not even a month away and the franchises have started to up their social media game. The team in purple and gold has dug up some pictures from the past where their captain and coach were playing against each other alongside a picture where they are labeled as ‘pillars of strength for KKR’.
Here is KKR’s post:
