Indian Cricketer Kumar Sangakkara, KKR Managing Director Venky Mysore and coach Muttiah Muralitharan arrives ahead of the mega IPL auction 2023 set to take place in Kochi, Kerala. 

Kolkata Knight Riders have the least remaining purse of INR 7.05 crore to complete their squad at the IPL auction 2023. However, the side has maintained its core players and will further look to bolster the squad with domestic and overseas talents.

Retained KKR players during IPL 2023 are Andre Russell, Anukul Roy, Harshit Rana, Lockie Ferguson, Nitish Rana, Shreyas Iyer, Sunil Narine, Tim Southee, Umesh Yadav, Varun Chakaravarthy, Venkatesh Iyer, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Rinku Singh and Shardul Thakur. 

KKR will search for a fast bowler at the auction now that Pat Cummins is out, and Akeal Hosein or Reece Toply may be their top choices. To replace Aaron Finch, Kolkata will also need a top-order batsman. Rilee Rossouw and Dawid Malan may be on their radar.

Former Indian batsman Robin Uthappa believes KKR needs a backup fast bowler for Shardul Thakur and Umesh Yadav. He also feels that a wicketkeeper will also be required to back Andre Russell, who is prone to injuries.
