Ente — Sunil Narine has been with the KKR since 2012.

#1 Sunil Narine

The long association between the KKR and Narine is an unbreakable bond.

Arguably the best foreign spinner to play the IPL, Sunil Narine has been one of the IPL greats. Narine is the only foreign spin bowler to pick up 100 IPL wickets.

Joining the Knight Riders in 2012, he has spun a web around every team that he has played against. 108 wickets from 93 matches at an economy of just 6.48 are an evidence of this fact. Even today, batsmen find his variations hard to decipher.

In the recent years, he has shown his batting prowess while opening the batting and playing the role of pinch-hitter to perfection. Narine continues to be an invaluable player for the Kolkata Knight Riders.
