No regrets, made right decisions on not retaining the likes of Gill: Mysore

NEW DELHI, May 1: Kolkata Knight Riders "do not regret" losing players who are now bringing laurels to other franchises, said team CEO and managing director Venky Mysore on Sunday, adding they made the decisions based on "available information".
Shubman Gill's loss has been Gujarat Titans' gain as the India opener played a key role in winning the title in their maiden appearance last season.
"There is actually happiness when we see some of the players we have developed go to other franchises and do well -- Shubman gill is an example," Mysore told reporters.
With 483 runs, Gill was among the top-five rungetter last season. This time too, the youngster has been in fine form with 333 runs from eight innings (41.62 average).
It's not just Gill, former KKR players Kuldeep Yadav (Delhi Capitals), Piyush Chawla (Mumbai Indians) and Ajinkya Rahane (Chennai Super Kings) have been in fine form for their respective franchises.
Rahane, who got limited opportunities at KKR last season, has been a transformed player under the talismanic MS Dhoni and made a Team India comeback in Tests after 15 months.
"It's always difficult to lose such players and when they do such well. Yesterday also I was telling Gill (49) that I was enjoying your batting but I was hoping that you would not take the game away from us. Score some runs, but let us... (win)," Mysore added.
Blaming it on the IPL rules, Mysore said: "The limitation as you know, the rules the IPL and BCCI make. In 2022 auction, we were allowed to keep only four players. There's always a debate. There is always eight or nine whom we would like to keep, you had to select four out of those."
"It's tough but that's the system though. It happens to every team. (KKR captain) Shreyas (Iyer) was with Delhi and he's with us, so on and forth... I can give any number of example."
"It's never a regret, and the decisions were made based on the set of information that was available at that point. We believe those were the right decisions we made, but it's always tough to lose some players."
KKR had retained Andre Russell, Varun Chakravarthy, Venkatesh Iyer and Sunil Narine ahead of IPL 2022.
"Iyer, Varun took us to the final in 2021. Russell arguably the best T20 allrounder, Narine I don't have to say much about him. Those decisions were difficult and in the process you just let some players go.
