What’s KKR’s Strategy?

In last game against GT, KKR made a change in batting by bringing Rahmanullah Gurbaz in place of Quinton de Kock. But this strategy didn’t work as he couldn’t make an impact. This might not change KKR’s approach towards him and give him another chance.

What’s PBKS’ Strategy?

Despite loosing their last game, PBKS wont make much of changes and stick to same playing 11.
