In an important news development, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will miss the services of their overseas wicket-keeper batsman Litton Das in their 9th game of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) season against the Gujarat Titans (GT) being played at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Things worked out really well for the Kolkata Knight Riders during their most recent game of the Indian Premier League 2023 as they defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore by a margin of 21 runs. KKR now have as many as 3 victories from a total of 8 games in IPL 2023.
KKR vs GT: Why is Litton Das Not Playing Today IPL Match? Who is KKR Wicket Keeper?
Unfortunately, Bangladesh wicket-keeper batsman Litton Das will not be available for selection in KKR playing 11 for today’s KKR vs GT match. Incidentally, the explosive batsman has already left the Kolkata Knight Riders camp in order to travel to his home in Bangladesh due to a family emergency. It is being reported that there is no information as to when will Litton return for IPL 2023 season at this moment. Litton made his IPL debut this year for the Kolkata Knight Riders in the match against Delhi Capitals but he could only manage to score 4 runs and was also sloppy as a wicket-keeper on a few occasions. Interestingly, Litton Das was dropped from the side after that game and since then, N Jagadeesan has been the KKR wicket-keeper.
“He had a family medical emergency for which he had to fly back to Dhaka this morning. There is no update on his return yet,” a team official said as quoted by news agency PTI.
