Clash starts betwen Shahrukh Khan and Sourav Ganguly in Kolkata Knight Riders

Knight Riders – probably were the best team with a lot of supporters in Kolkata and all-over. Looking the star players like Ganguly, Shoaib Akhtar, Gayle, McCullum, Ponting and others, everyone expected Knight Riders to be one of the top teams of IPL. Things were good at first when team was winning but as soon as the team has started loosing, clashes are going on between team owner Shahrukh Khan and coach Buckanan on one side and the captain Sourav Ganguly on other side.

Shahrukh who was happy with the team and Ganguly at the beginning has blamed Ganguly for the continuous failure of the team. Clashes between Ganguly and Shahrukh are going on regarding the toss, opening batting, choosing the 11-players sides and all. Shahrukh is in support of coach who has clashes with Ganguly.

First of all, the opening pair is not satisfactory for Shahrukh. He says that after the departure of Gayle and McCullum, they tried Akash Chopra, Salman Butt, Hafeez and even ganguly but it has not been able to provide strong opening to the team. Selection of Shoaib Akhtar is also a matter of quarrel between Knight Riders coach and Ganguly. Ganguly had forcefully played Akhtar in the match where he took 4 wickets despite the decision of coach not to play him. Similarly, Akash Chopra has been given opportunities which are not favoured by Ganguly.

Where there are Shahrukh and Ganguly there is supposed to be clashes and controversies. The dispute of Ganguly with the coach proves that though it’s Chappell or any other it doesn’t matters for him.
