IPL 2021: With Shubman Gill 'struggling', Sunil Gavaskar suggests new opening pair for KKR

IPL 2021: Former India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has suggested that KKR could opt to open with Rahul Tripathi and Sunil Narine as Shubman Gill has been struggling with his form in this season. Gill has managed 89 runs in 6 matches so far.

Former India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has suggested a new opening pair for Kolkata Knight Riders after Shubman Gill's continued failure at the top. 2-time champions KKR defeated Punjab Kings (PBKS) by 5 wickets to register their second win in IPL 2021 on Monday. However, Gill continued to struggle with his form. In the 6 matches so far, the right-hander has managed to score only 89 runs at an average of 14.83. The 22-year-old has crossed the 30-run mark only once this season.
