This bowler will prove to be a game changer for KKR in IPL 2025, will give sleepless nights to the opposition team.
IPL 2025: Every cricket fan is waiting for IPL 2025. This season is also special because the mega auction has changed the picture of many teams. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) has also made major changes in its team. Last season's captain Shreyas Iyer has been released, and the team will now take the field with a new captain. But the most talked about thing is Australian fast bowler Spencer Johnson, who has been bought by KKR for Rs 2.80 crore.
Spencer Johnson can prove to be a match winner
Spencer Johnson's name may not be that big in international cricket yet, but his performance makes him special. Gujarat Titans had released him, and KKR took advantage of the opportunity and included this young bowler in their team. KKR hopes that Spencer can fill the void of Mitchell Starc. Stark was also released this time.
Explosive performance in T20
Spencer's T20 record is quite excellent. While playing for Brisbane Heat in the Big Bash League, he has created a stir with his bowling many times. Recently, he dismissed David Warner with a yorker against Sydney Thunder, and this ball of his went viral on social media.

If we talk about Spencer's statistics, he has played 64 T20 matches so far and has taken 79 wickets. His best performance has been taking 5 wickets for 26 runs. His bowling in the death overs and his ability to throw yorkers make him a special bowler.
