Kolkata upbeat about Lynn injury

Hopes raised Lynn may return during IPL season after scans reveal damage to left shoulder 'not as bad as we thought'

Big-hitting batsman Chris Lynn's shoulder injury may not be as bad as first feared and he could yet still feature in the current IPL season.

Lynn injured his left shoulder diving in the outfield during the Kolkata Knight Riders' four-wicket defeat to the Mumbai Indians last week.

There were fears the latest shoulder setback could derail his IPL season. But Lynn is understood to be remaining with the franchise in India and KKR coach Jaques Kallis said MRI scans had revealed the prognosis was better than expected.

"He has gone for his scan. It's not as bad as we thought," Kallis told reporters at Eden Gardens ahead of the Knight Riders' clash with King's XI Punjab.

"Our medical staff is working overtime to see how quickly we can get him ready and if we can get him ready.

"There is a good chance we will play a role for us this season."

The former South Africa allrounder said despite the positive scan results, there was no timeframe for Lynn's return.

"It's still too early to assess. We are not going to rush him," Kallis said.

"When he feels he is ready to play, the medical staff will qualify when there is a possibility of him playing, we will certainly play him when we can."

The news is a boost for Australia's Champions Trophy hopes, with Lynn's explosive hitting potential making him a near-certain squad selection for the mid-year tournament in the UK.

Lynn has an unfortunate history of shoulder problems that continued with the injury against Mumbai.

Lynn had missed the first half of the 2016-17 season after dislocating the same shoulder in Sri Lanka last year, while his recent KFC Big Bash League campaign was cut short due to a neck problem. He also missed the 2015 Matador BBQs One-Day Cup after dislocating his left shoulder.

He had surgery on the same shoulder in the winter of 2014, forcing him to miss the start of the 2014-15 season.

Lynn lamented his injury woes on social media after the match.

Gautam Gambhir After this Loose Against Mumbai Indians

:(  :(
Gambhir: The last three overs we put a good score on the board and 179 was defendable. Hardik played an unbelievable innings and so did Nitish. But had we taken the catch, things would have been different. We do back our bowlers to do the job; Trent (Boult) and Chris (Woakes) are experienced campaigners. Anything would have happened if we had taken the catch or had Surya stopped the four. It is a good chasing ground and there was dew around. The spinners were finding it difficult to grip the ball, but we could have won it had it not been for the last three overs. I still do not have any update on Lynn's injury.

The execution from KKR wasn't quite there at the death. They bowled too many full tosses while aiming for the yorker. Maybe dew kicked in to play a role as well. Wankhede is generally a hard ground to defend. But whatever the case, they had this won. This result will hurt.

Gambhir About Rovman Powell

Gambhir about Rovman Pawell
"We will miss Andre Russell this season, no doubt. Russell had a great contribution to several victories of KKR in the past. But at the same time, I am requesting you guys to keep eyes on another young West Indian lad. His name is Rovman Powell. He is only 23-years-old. He is an all-rounder, can bat in the middle order as well as he can bowl fast. I was really thrilled to have watched his batting and bowling video. I believe Powel has the ability to fulfil the absence of Russell.”

Kolkata Knight Riders Full Team of IPL 10

Kolkata Knight Riders were unarguably one of the most talented sides last season in the Indian Premier League. Having won the tournament twice already, they come into the 10th edition looking mighty strong to repeat their previous feats. KKR did not have a great year in the last IPL edition. They finished fifth in the points table and they would like to reverse their fortunes this time. The team is set. We just hope that the spread the magic like they did in 2012 and 2014. Kolkata IPL team 2017 is placed below.
The team has got a pretty well balanced squad, which didn’t succumb to injuries that often. The lads were being led by Gautam Gambhir on the field, while their former batsman Jacques Kallis coached the boys. Gambhir’s role as a skipper and batsman is certainly commendable, given that he played a crucial part in team’s journey to the playoffs.

In the 15 innings he played, he managed to score 501 runs, making him the fourth highest scorer in the league. His opening partner Robin Uthappa did a great job in supporting his teammate, as his runs tally stands at 394 runs, Apart from them, Yusuf Pathan too did a terrific job, who scored 361 runs in 13 innings. Having single-handedly taken his side to wins on more than one occasion, we can certainly expect Pathan to play for the Riders next season too.

It is certainly hard to pinpoint where it all went wrong for them, but it is fair to say that they played as a team and went down as a team last season. Their bowling attack has been quite impressive, given that it boasts of spinners such as Sunil Narine and Piyush Chawla, who share 22 wickets among them. Andre Russell remained to be the highest wicket taker with 15 wickets, while Morne Morkel and Umesh Yadav remained at 10 wickets each. Shakib Al Hasan didn’t really prove his worth as an all rounder last season.

This year again, the batting department will be led by Gautam Gambhir with the likes of Manish Pandey, Suryakumar Yadav, Andre Russell, Robin Uthappa, Shakib-Al-Hasan and Yusuf Pathan providing the much-needed backup. The bowling department has the likes of Sunil Narine, Piyush Chawla, Umesh Yadav. The release of Morne Morkel was a surprise as he was the pace spearhead for the team. The team name Laxmipathy Balaji as their bowling coach.
In the recently concluded auctions, the team has managed to rope in Trent Boult, Chris Woakes, Darren Bravo. The acquisitions are expected to lend the team balance. Talking about the prospects, Trent Boult is a great bowler and will be keen to prove his credentials in the IPL. Chris Woakes is a promising and talented all-rounder and his abilities to contribute with both bat and ball will be much needed. Darren bravo, the classy left-hand batsman from West Indies is also an aggressive player who likes to dominate and his addition will enable the team to experiment with the squad in terms of batting order.

Nonetheless, given the form of the players, the Riders haven’t got that much to worry about on their path to win the third title. Jacques Kallis will definitely take into account the errors of his side, and work on them to get a well polished team. IPL KKR team list 2017 is placed below.

KKR 2017 Team

Full list of Kolkata Knight Riders players for IPL 2017 is placed below;

Gautam Gambhir (Captain), Andre Russel, Kuldeep Yadav, Sunil Narine, Manish Pandey, Shakib Al Hasan, Piyush Chawla, Chris Lynn, Robin Uthappa, Trend Boult, Sheldon Jackson, Chris Woakes, Surya kumar Yadav, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Ankit Rajpoot, Rovman Powell, Umesh Yadav, Darren Bravo, Yusuf Pathan, Rishi Dhawan, R Sanjay YadavIshank Jaggi, Sayan Ghosh

Kolkata has always won the attendance stakes and the fans will surely keep this tradition going as they come out in large numbers to support their team who live their slogan of “Korbo, Lorbo, Jeetbo Re!”

Ravichandan Ashwin Can't Play IPL 10

India and Rising Pune Super Giants (RPS) star Ravichandran Ashwin is set to miss the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) owing to sports hernia.

Ashwin, who had undergone scans in Mumbai following the four-match Test series against Australia, is likely to be ruled out for six-eight weeks.

The all-rounder, however, is expected to be back for the ICC Champions Trophy in the summer. Sports hernia is a strain or tear of any soft tissue in the lower abdomen or groin area.

The development will come as a major blow to RPS, who will be aiming for the title after a disappointing debut season in 2016.
Ashwin has been in a prolific run of form with the ball in recent months, playing a key role in India’s home Test season, where the Virat Kohli-led side won 10 of their 13 matches.

The 30-year-old off-spinner has had an unprecedented workload during the season that featured matches against New Zealand, England, Bangladesh and Australia.

During the period, Ashwin bowled 738.2 overs - the most ever by a bowler in a Test season - and picked up a record 82 wickets. The duo of Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja claimed 153 wickets at an average of 24.14 to become the most successful bowling pair in a season.

Ashwin first got injured immediately after the Test series against England in December. He soon withdrew from Tamil Nadu’s Ranji Trophy semi-final clash against Karnataka.

In fact, in the first Test of the season, against New Zealand at Kanpur in September last year, Ashwin had bowled despite the pain due to a corn in his middle finger.

Ashwin’s India teammate KL Rahul is also reported to likely miss the tournament, while Murali Vijay’s participation also is rumoured to be doubtful.

On the other hand, India skipper Virat Kohli will miss the initial phase of the tournament due to his shoulder injury, and as per a report in Wisden India, Ravindra Jadeja and Umesh Yadav will join him on the sidelines for the first few weeks.
