Wasim Akram
Bowling Consultant
Wasim Akram
The sultan of swing is with us this season, as a mentor to the bowlers of Kolkata Knight Riders. One of the few bowlers the world has ever known who could swing the ball both ways, Wasim Akram is perhaps best known as one of the pioneers of reverse swing.
Born on June 3, 1966, this 43 year old left arm legend has the distinction of being in the ICC Hall of Fame, and in the dream team of all times. With Wasim helping us out, our pacers like Ishant Sharma and Ashok Dinda are sure to rely on his know-how every time they pick the ball.
Vijay Dahiya
Assistant Coach
Delhi’s Ranji coach Vijay Dahiya will now assist Dav as the assistant coach of Kolkata Knight Riders. He brings with him rich experience, both as a player and as a coach. Vijay coached the Delhi team to win the Ranji title after a 16 year drought. Born on May 7, 1973 the 36 years old former Indian wicket – keeper was also the captain of the Delhi Ranji team and a consistent performer in the domestic circuit.
