KKR CEO Venky Mysore reveals real reasons behind not having teams in The Hundred and SA20 ...Middle East

News by : (cricketaddictor) -

As of now, along with the Indian Premier League (IPL), the Knight Riders have teams in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) and in the International League T20 (ILT20). But they could have teams in the SA20 and in the Hundred as well.

“In England, the issue was valuation again. It became a valuation exercise, and at those numbers, it didn’t make financial sense for us. A spreadsheet is only as good as the assumptions you make. We don’t want to borrow, we don’t want to raise money outside. You tell me how much you want I’ll put in the money. I want to sleep well at night,” Venky Mysore explained why the Knight Riders are not a part of The Hundred.

The COVID-19 pandemic influenced the original plans

“In South Africa, Knight Riders had actually signed up to participate in a previous incarnation of the country’s T20 franchise league that was put on hold before COVID. When it was resurrected, the fit was no longer there. Besides not meeting the Knight Riders’ financial requirements, there was also the practical challenge of a schedule clash with the ILT20,” Mysore said on not having a team in SA20.

Focus is now on the IPL 2026 season

On paper, the KKR is looking strong enough to throw strong challenges to the opponents in the IPL 2026 season. Still, some doubts and concerns remain. Ahead of the season, the franchise sustains multiple injury concerns. Harshit Rana is reportedly ruled out of the entire season. Another pacer, Matheesha Pathirana, is yet to get full fitness.
