New Delhi. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Wednesday signed England’s Jason Roy for the rest of the IPL season for a price of Rs 2.8 crore.
Roy’s base price was Rs 1.5 crore. Two-time champion KKR has lost many of its players due to various reasons.
Regular skipper Shreyas Iyer has been ruled out of the rest of the ongoing IPL season following a back surgery in London, while Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has decided to pull out due to personal reasons.
The 32-year-old Roy has previously played for four teams – KKR, Delhi Capitals, Gujarat Lions and Sunrisers Hyderabad. His last appearance in the IPL was in the 2021 season when he scored 150 runs including a half-century in five matches for the Sunrisers.
The England opener has scored 1522 runs in 64 T20s for his country at a strike rate of 137.61 including eight half-centuries.(IANS)
