KKR Playing 11 Today 2023: The Kolkata Knight Riders had a disappointing season in the 2022 IPL, ending in eighth place overall and as the third club to be eliminated from the competition. KKR frequently switched up their starting lineup throughout the course of the season as a result of their inability to achieve the perfect balance in their team and lack of confidence. They were unable to perform consistently and produce the anticipated outcomes as a result.
