The former England batter said that Cameron Green, who was bought for INR 25.20 crore, is not doing what an all-rounder is supposed to do. He believes that the Kolkata Knight Riders are taking a huge risk by playing Green at No. 3 because he has not yet proved himself for such a big responsibility.
He's good enough to bat at No. 3: Kevin Pietersen on Green
The Englishman continued, “And I don't think that he's good enough to bat at number 3. He's not bowling, so you have a look at what he has done. Yes, I've seen his; he got a 100 in Mumbai a couple of years ago. I've not seen enough of Cam Green to warrant batting a 3 here and taking on that responsibility. He's a middle-order batter who bowls a bit, and that's what he does.”

'KKR needs proven T20 specialists, not players like Green'
The former Indian coach has stressed that the overseas stars must be “specialists” because there are only four spots available. Bangar further stressed that Cameron Green is not bowling at the moment, so he doesn't fit into that ideal tag because he is just a batsman, and playing an overseas batter doesn’t make any sense, especially in this fast-paced format.
He signed off by saying, “You have to think of the specialists. So, you might as well think of Rovman Powell, who is a proven T20 specialist who bats and does a very specialized job. So, I like Powell for the fact that he is a specialist, does a role, and is a proven commodity rather than hoping that someone would come good.”
