The two-time winners have come into the second leg with an aggressive approach, registering back-to-back dominant wins. This puts the franchise back into contention for a spot in the playoffs following a dismal first-half in India.
Dasgupta noted how sticking with Eoin Morgan as captain despite a poor start to his leadership stint was the right approach. Dasgupta said on his YouTube channel:

KKR are aiming to compete in the playoffs following successive fifth-spot finishes.
This break has definitely benefitted the players: Deep Dasgupta
Dasgupta noted how the change in KKR’s brand of cricket has been a gradual one. The franchise endured a rather poor run in the second half of the 2020 Indian Premier League and could only register two wins in the first half of the ongoing edition.
He feels that the break worked greatly in the favor of players, who are now fully adapted to the new brand of cricket. Dasgupta added:
Dinesh Karthik stepped down from the captaincy role mid-way through last season with Morgan taking over. The wicket-keeper continues to act as vice-captain and has spoken of the good camaradarie he shares with Morgan on the field.
