Anrich Nortje’s fitness is a big worry for KKR. It will not be a surprise if he is unavailable for the competition. Here, we take a look at the list of three English cricketers KKR can target if Anrich Nortje is ruled out of IPL 2025.
1) Craig Overton
Craig’s brother Jamie would have been a nice fit for KKR. However, Jamie will have an important role to play for CSK in IPL 2025.
That said, Craig is also a fine cricketer. He can be an option to increase the batting depth of the side, as well.
2) Gus Atkinson is an option if Nortje is unavailable for KKR in IPL 2025
Gus Atkinson is one of the English cricketers KKR can target if Anrich Nortje is not playing in IPL 2025. KKR had signed him for the last campaign but Gus had to pull out.
KKR might go for him again. His signing makes sense because he is a similar bowler to Nortje. If he does well, KKR will have a top bowler for the future.
3) Josh Hull
KKR sometimes makes some interesting signings. With Spencer Johnson already there, KKR might not worry too much about Nortje, as well.
Therefore, someone like Josh Hull could be an option for the side. The tall left-arm pacer will be an exciting choice for the side.
