    The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have always been reliant on youngsters and rookies, who are also in the radar of Indian national selectors.

    Unfortunately, the team has suffered a setback as U-19 star and pacer Kamlesh Nagarkoti has been ruled out once again, owing to a foot injury.

    In the same light, KKR have announced that rookie Indian pacer Sandeep Warrier would replace him.

    Following the setback of the U-19 star, KKR suffered another blow in the same category as Indian pacer Shivam Mavi is set to miss the entire season due to a back stress fracture.

    Although he had leaked runs at the death, last season, he sure turned out to be KKR's wicket-taking bowler.
