Why the KKR could not make it to the semis ? Perhaps because its local players like Ashok Dinda, W Shah, D Das and LR Shukla could not motivate themselves enough when they found that Saurav had only one point agenda of self promotion to regain a place in the nationa one day side and nothing more. They would be left in the lurch to be content with the Maidan or the gulleys of Howrah ! Besides, Buchanen and Saurav were not operating in the same frequency. Sacking of few players midway only added to the woes. So, the next year SRK must take into account these factors if the team is to make the grade.
