Das, who was purchased by the Knight Riders for a sum of Rs 50 lakh in last year’s player auction, made just one appearance this season — in the match against Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi.

Das managed just four runs after walking out to open alongside Jason Roy, and was later guilty of fluffing quite a few chances with the wicketkeeping gloves, with the Capitals going on to win by four wickets.

Narayan Jagadeesan, whom Das had replaced in the XI for the Delhi game, has since returned to the KKR lineup, opening alongside Roy and also taking over wicketkeeping duties.

The Knight Riders, who currently sit at the seventh spot with three wins and five losses, face Gujarat Titans in their next assignment, with the match taking place at KKR’s home venue of the Eden Gardens on Saturday afternoon.
