Kolkata Knight Riders captain Ajinkya Rahane has suggested that Cricket Australia may have influenced the decision not to use Cameron Green as a bowler during their high-scoring clash against Mumbai Indians. Green, who was bought by KKR for a record ₹25.20 crore, contributed a quick cameo with the bat, scoring 18 runs off just 10 balls. However, his absence from the bowling attack raised eyebrows, especially as Mumbai Indians successfully chased down a massive target of 220.
