#2 KC Cariappa

KC Cariappa played for KKR for the second time in his career after turning out for the franchise in 2015. Then, he had set the Karnataka Premier League aflutter with his mystery spin, and with the Eden track keeping slow and low till a few years ago, KKR broke the bank and finally got him for INR 2.4 crores. However, he was unable to have an impact then as he played just one game and gave away 28 runs.
He was picked for 2019 but faced a similar fate. Cariappa played just a solitary game against the Sunrisers Hyderabad and leaked 34 runs in two overs without getting any wicket. With KKR possessing spinners like Kuldeep Yadav, Narine and Piyush Chawla along with part-timer Nitish Rana, Cariappa's services might not be needed for the next edition. Also, with the Eden track not helping the spinners of late, Cariappa will just be an additional member in the franchise.
