Chakravarthy, their second spinner, is in doubt for Thursday's clash against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) due to an injury to his left hand, which also caused him to miss the PBKS clash. He had sustained the injury during the clash against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) last week, as per ESPNCricinfo. As per KKR management, Narine faced an "abdominal issue" which kept him away from the PBKS clash, making that game the first instance since the 2019 edition that both spinners did not feature in the playing XI. Anukul Roy, the left-armer, was the sole spinner to feature for KKR against PBKS. Narine has fared better though, taking 1/30 in four overs against MI, while going for 0/39 in four overs against SRH.
