The recent episode of Beyond The Boundary, hosted by Chetan Narula, aired on October 30, discussed vital aspects of the IPL 2025 retention. The discussion focussed on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and featured experts K Shriniwas Rao, Sahil Malhotra, and Manuja Veerapa from Times of India.
Sunil Narine is KKR's first choice for retention and there will be a fight between Venkatesh Iyer and Varun Chakaravarthy for the fifth slot.
"Sunil Narine is the first retention, followed by Andre Russell and Rinku Singh. Ramandeep Singh will be retained and Harshit Rana is their uncapped retention. Venkatesh Iyer or Varun Chakaravarthy can be the fifth retention," revealed K Shriniwas Rao, Group Sports Editor of Times Internet.
The KKR, former IPL champions, are in a critical situation as they are set to face the upcoming season without their top staff, including former mentor Gautam Gambhir.
Additionally, there is uncertainty surrounding skipper Shreyas Iyer, with other teams exploring the possibility of acquiring him.
