In an interview with ANI, Mills called Virat Kohli the best cricketer in the world and said that youngsters Shivam Mavi and Kamlesh Nagarkoti would be presented with a great opportunity to make a statement should they fare well against the Indian captain.
KKR has a very young yet varied bowling attack
Mills, who picked up 327 wickets in his international career, said that IPL 2020 will be fascinating to watch if young bowlers take the attack to established stars like Virat Kohli.
Apart from 20-year-old Nagarkoti and 21-year-old Mavi, KKR has names such as Prasidh Krishna and Sandeep Warrier. Among uncapped spinners, they have got Manimaran Siddharth and Varun Chakravarthy.
Interestingly, KKR all-rounder Nitish Rana sprung a surprise in IPL 2018 by dismissing Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers off successive deliveries.

It’d be intriguing to see if the side’s relatively young attack can indeed embrace the challenge of bowling to big-hitters and, in turn, provide good support to experienced international performers like Pat Cummins, Andre Russell and Kuldeep Yadav.
If they succeed in doing so, KKR will definitely be one of the favorites to lift their third IPL trophy.
