KOLKATA: Kolkata Knight Riders seem to be in a mood for complete overhaul of their overseas contingent as they released six of them out of the 15 in all ahead of the IPL mini-auction scheduled to take place in Kochi on December 23.
Keeping faith in old warhorses Sunil Narine and Andre Russell, in spite of both not playing too much cricket over the year, KKR found themselves in a tricky situation after three of their leading stars Pat Cummins, Sam Billings and Alex Hales opted out of next year’s tournament. They now have three overseas slots to fill up.
