Bowlers - Mitchell Starc, Jaydev Unadkat and Mohit Sharma

Starc has done very little justice to his IPL franchises in the recent past. Although he was good with RCB in the beginning, he failed to turn up in many subsequent seasons. He was ruled out last season due to injury too, and KKR's huge investment in him at the auction went for a toss. Starc's fragility and non-availability have made KKR release him to the auctions.
Unadkat was the costliest Indian player in the previous auction but the Saurashtra bowler was not able to live up to his price. He is still one of the best left-hand bowlers in India though, and will likely command a good price in the upcoming auctions too.
Mohit Sharma has been released after an unsuccessful season with KXIP in 2018. He is one of the better Indian bowlers to have been released and hence makes it into this squad.
