Then if he contributes in other sports, absolutely fantastic.” The former India captain said that KKR will get value for their money only if the left-arm fast bowler delivers match-winning performances. Gavaskar said, “He will have to bowl match-winning bowling in at least four of the 14 matches, probably in the important matches against Mumbai Indians, Chennai Super Kings and RCB, because all three of them have top-class batting lineups. Get those teams out and then you can say money is valuable.” Starc had previously represented Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 2014 and 2015 IPL, where he played 27 matches and took 34 wickets at an economy rate of 7.17. However, since then, he is yet to be a part of the marquee tournament. In such a situation, the fans Hopefully he makes an impact with his return.
