IPL 2023: Best XI from fourth week of tournament
The fourth week of the IPL 2023 witnessed some epic encounters, and some of the players stood out to make a name for themselves as they feature in this article
2. Jason Roy (KKR)
Jason Roy has been the ideal opener for the Kolkata Knight Riders in this edition of the IPL. Even after being an established opener for the English side, lack of support from franchises in the IPL never enabled him to showcase his skills in the toughest T20 league. But now, it looks like he has found his mojo in the IPL.
During the home game against the Chennai Super Kings, Roy was sent in at number six, which is unusual for a batter like him. Well, it never bothered him as he scored a magnificent 61 from just 26 balls. But this was not enough as KKR’s batting stumbled against a strong spin attack.
After a home defeat, KKR travelled down to the south to face RCB. Here, things were a bit different as Roy was given the chance to open the attack. He scored a quick 56 off 29 balls to ensure that KKR were off to a good start. This time, the men in purple were able to cross the line as KKR won by 21 runs.
