KKR’s decision to release N Jagadeesan ahead of the IPL 2024 auction may prove shortsighted. While his debut season for KKR in 2023 saw modest performances, the wicketkeeper-batter has since displayed a remarkable resurgence, amassing 377 runs in 16 innings across various formats. The initial underwhelming stint might have overlooked his subsequent stellar performances, making him a valuable asset.
With his renewed batting prowess and wicketkeeping skills, Jagadeesan could have served as a dependable backup option. The franchise may rue the missed opportunity, as his recent form suggests untapped potential that could have flourished in the upcoming season, adding depth to the team’s roster.
