‘Clueless, Fraud’: KKR’s Rs 23.75 Crore Buy Venkatesh Iyer Trolled Brutally For IPL 2025 Flop Show

Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Venkatesh Iyer, who was bought for an RS 23.75 crore in the mega auction, did not manage to mark once again during the IPL 2025 meeting against Delhi Capitals on Tuesday. Venkateh’s price has made him an important player for KKR, but he has been quite disappointing in this year’s competition so far. He scored only 135 points in 9 games before the DC clash and Tuesday, he was dismissed by Axar Patel for only 7 years. Social media users were not satisfied with its disappointing race and Venkatesh was roasted massively on its form as well as its extravagant price.

Venkatesh Iyer is nothing less than a scam of 23.75 crores.

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) included the non -capped left -wing spinner Anukul Roy while the Capitals of Delhi Inchanges (DC) won the draw and chose to play in the first match 48 of IPL 2025 at Stade Arun Jaitley on Tuesday.

Disappointed to you, Venkatesh Iyer. You are the weak link of this team. Just see how it was well set up. And he destroyed it. Every bit of it.

DC has 12 points in nine matches, but they found themselves on the losing side in two games on three held on their original field at IPL 2025. A victory will help them reach 14 points and win their second victory of the season in New Delhi.

After winning the throw, the skipper Axar Patel said: “It becomes easier to beat in the second round because of the dew. I think it’s a slow window, does not look dry and looks like a field of 190-200.”

“I will assess the conditions and try to restrict them to a lower total. You must stay in the present. We wanted to focus on the process, do not worry about the result. Need to execute our plans.”

KKR captain Ajinkya Rahane said Roy arrives for the Vaibhav Arora stimulator, who is now in the list of impact replacements. The reigning champions have only seven points against nine games and need to win many people to stay in the running for a place in the playoffs.

“It is difficult to read the counter, I thought that the spinner of the left arm would be a good option on this surface. We have to win five out of five, as simple as that. We are looking to play a game at a time and we will advance accordingly. It is difficult to read this counter. Need to adapt to the conditions and to assess quickly,” he said.

Tuesday’s match will be played on Pitch number five, the square limits are 63 m and 62 m respectively, the right limit located at 67 m. Commentators Ian Bishop and Nick Knight estimated that the terrain looked more compact because it has a little radiance.
