Cameron Green Returns to Bowling for KKR in IPL 2026 Cameron Green, the Australian all-rounder signed by the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) for a record 25 crore, has been granted permission to resume bowling in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. This development comes after the Australian Cricket Board cleared him for fitness, allowing KKR to integrate him into their bowling attack. Green, who has been sidelined due to a lower back injury, had not bowled in any of the first three matches of the tournament, drawing criticism for his lack of contribution. His return is seen as a crucial move for KKR, which has struggled with its bowling department and failed to secure a single win in the tournament so far. The decision to allow Green to bowl follows a social media post by KKR, which shared a video of the player practicing bowling on nets. In the clip, Green is shown delivering overs and even taking wickets, signaling his readiness to return to the field. This move is particularly significant for KKR, which has faced challenges in its bowling department, with key players underperforming and the team relying heavily on its batting lineup. Green’s inclusion is expected to provide the team with an additional bowling option, potentially altering the dynamics of their matches. Green, known for his medium-paced bowling and a T20 career that includes 30 wickets in 73 matches, has been a key player for KKR since his arrival. However, his batting performance has been inconsistent, with him scoring only 24 runs in three matches so far. Despite this, his ability to contribute with the ball has been a critical factor in the team’s strategy.#ipl_2026 #kolkata_knight_riders #mumbai_indians #cameron_green #australian_cricket_board
