KKR said in a statement on Wednesday, ‘Kolkata Knight Riders have signed Jason Roy of England for IPL 2023 for his base price of Rs 1.5 crore to Rs 2.8 crore. Roy first featured in the 2017 edition of the IPL for the Gujarat Lions. Last played for Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2021 season.
In 2021, he played five matches, scoring 150 runs including a half-century. The 32-year-old has played 64 T20Is for England, scoring 1,522 runs at a strike-rate of 137.61 with eight fifties. Roy is likely to replace Afghanistan wicketkeeper-batsman Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who opened in their match against Punjab Kings and scored 22 off 16 balls. The Purple Brigade already has N Jagadeesan to don the gloves.
It is noteworthy that in the absence of Iyer, the captaincy of the team is with Nitish Rana. The team had suffered a 7-run defeat against the Punjab Kings in their first in the tournament. Now the thing to be seen is whether the luck of the team opens with the arrival of Roy or not.
