Kolkata Knight Riders reveal injured John Hastings replacement plan
KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS are in talks with a replacement for all-rounder John Hastings.
Hastings played the first two IPL 2016 games for KKR before injury hit
Hastings was today ruled out of the rest of the Indian Premier League (IPL) with an ankle injury.
The Australian got hurt warming up for KKR’s clash with Mumbai Indians but bowled through the pain and finished with the best economy rate of any bowler in the innings.
But now KKR assistant coach Simon Katich has revealed that Hastings has flown home.
"We have sent off the paperwork.
“Nothing has been confirmed regarding the player concerned.
“Hopefully that'll happen in the next few days.
“We have sent out the paperwork to BCCI, we'll just have to see what happens."
