IPL 2021: What is the Bio-Bubble in T20 league

The 14th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will be played under the shadow of the COVID-19 pandemic. IPL 2021 will get underway in Chennai on Friday (April 9) with the opening fixture between Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore but all eight franchises have been in bio-bubbles for the last few weeks -- divided between Mumbai and Chennai initially. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) are strict when it comes to complete adherence to guidelines and safety measures inside these bio-bubbles, which have now become integral part of international cricket as well. We try and explain what is a bio-bubble with these collection of pictures.

IPL 2021: Kolkata Knight Riders full squad and player stats

The Shah Rukh Khan-owned Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Kolkata Knight Rider just missed out on a Playoff berth in IPL 2020 by the smallest of margins. The Eoin Morgan-led side missed out on the playoffs spot on Net Run-Rate (NRR) as they had 14 points equal to those of Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). KKR had a captaincy change midway during the tournament as Dinesh Karthik let go off the leadership duty for team's cause. The inconsistency hurt the Kolkata-based franchise as they blew out oppositions in one game and could score 84 runs in their whole innings in one. However, with the additions of Harbhajan Singh, Karun Nair, Shakib Al Hasan, Ben Cutting and Pawan Negi, KKR have filled their gaps and would be looking to end the trophy drought this year. Here are the full squad and player details of the KKR side in IPL 2021.
