Kolkata Knight Riders, on the other hand, have freed up Rs 10.75 crore by releasing out-of-form all-rounder Shardul Thakur. In contrast to the release of Sarfaraz Khan and Manish Pandey, considered unsuitable for the demands of top-tier T20 cricket like the IPL, head coach Ricky Ponting and team director Sourav Ganguly express confidence in Shaw’s abilities.
