In a blow to their bowling attack, star fast bowler Mitchell Starc is a major doubt for the upcoming IPL match against Punjab Kings (PBKS) after picking up an injury during yesterday’s practice session.

Starc, known for his fiery pace and wicket-taking abilities, was reportedly unable to bowl a single delivery during the practice session. The exact nature of the injury is yet to be disclosed by the team management, but his absence would be a significant setback for the team.
Dushmantha Chameera, on the other hand, has been a vital part of the team’s bench strength throughout the IPL season. The right-arm fast bowler is known for his aggressive bowling style and ability to generate swing. With his experience and pace, Chameera is seen as a like-for-like replacement for Starc if the Australian is ruled out of the next match.
The official KKR team lineup for the match against PBKS is yet to be announced which will be played at 26 April Eden Gardens, Kolkata. Fans will be eagerly waiting for updates on Starc’s fitness and whether Chameera gets the nod to take his place in the playing XI.
