Kolkata has played three matches so far; after losing their first two games against the Mumbai Indians and the Sunrisers Hyderabad, the washout of their home match against Punjab helped them open their account in IPL 2026. Green featured in all these matches, scoring a total of just 24 runs; however, it was his absence as a bowler that hurt Kolkata the most. Now, according to reports, it appears that he will be seen bowling in the match against Lucknow.
