5 cricketers who Kolkata Knight Riders should not retain for the upcoming IPL season

#4 Yusuf Pathan

Yusuf Pathan has been an integral cog in Kolkata's batting line-up over the years and has taken them to numerous victories. He was sensational with the bat in the 2016 season scoring 361 runs at an average of 72.20.

However, the explosive Indian all-rounder is not the fearsome beast he once was. He has been extremely inconsistent in his performances and is currently out of favour with the Indian cricket team.

With the likes of Shakib al Hasan and Andre Russell in KKR's line-up, Pathan will most likely be dropped for the upcoming season.
