Green’s selflessness masks KKR’s real problem: they’re desperately unbalanced in the middle order. By accepting a bit-part role behind Allen, Green avoids fan backlash but highlights why Kolkata desperately needs a genuine number four. His willingness to be a utility player is admirable, but it’s also a band-aid on a structural weakness that won’t win them playoffs. KKR’s bowling can’t carry them forever.
