The overall performance of the Kolkata Knight Riders franchise in the IPL has been poor. The team led by Shreyas Aiyar beat Mumbai in their last match, but they are almost out of the play-off race.
The Kolkata team has seen frequent changes. In this regard, Captain Shreyas Aiyar said that coaches and CEOs are often involved in team selection.
Shreyas also hinted that he often has to give up his vote against the insistence of the team management and choose the team according to his advice. Shreyas indirectly hinted that his selection as captain was not responsible for the poor performance of the Kolkata team but was due to excessive interference from the team's coaches and CEOs.
Kolkata has been embroiled in controversy in the past. That's when a new controversy erupted over Aiyar's statement.
