IPL 2016 Predicted XI Kolkata Knight Riders

Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav will walk in at number 4 and will look to make it count

Ever since Yadav was snapped up by the KKR in the 2014 auctions he has not disappointed. He is a prolific run getter in the domestic circuit and has carried it on in the IPL as well.

He plays in an onorthodox manner and loves picking up the ball on the on-side, and he seldom is daunted by the opposition bowlers.

Yadav will bat at number 4 for KKR and will be crucial to their scheme of things, as he forms the crux in the line up hogged by Indian players.

In 30 matches Suryakumar has scored 321 runs with an average of 21.40 and a strike rate of 137.17
