    IPL 2026: KKR Rope In Luvnith Sisodia As Replacement For Injured Matheesha Pathirana

    Kolkata Knight Riders: Three-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have signed wicketkeeper‑batter Luvnith Sisodia as a replacement for injured Sri Lankan pacer Matheesha Pathirana for the remainder of IPL 2026.

    Sisodia, who represents Karnataka in domestic cricket, has previously featured for the franchise and Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the IPL. The 25‑year‑old has played 15 T20s, scoring 124 runs, and joins the franchise for Rs 30 lakh.

    The addition of Sisodia bolsters KKR’s squad depth, especially with Angkrish Raghuvanshi ruled out due to concussion and finger fracture. Pathirana, bought for an astonishing Rs 18 crore at the auction, has been ruled out due to a hamstring injury after bowling just 1.2 overs on his KKR debut against Gujarat Titans on May 16, where he was introduced into the game as an Impact Player.
