Mumbai Indians (MI) have traded batsman Siddhesh Lad to the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) for the forthcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Lad, who was with MI since 2015, played his first IPL game last season when he was included in the playing XI as skipper Rohit Sharma was ruled out of the game against Kings XI Punjab owing to an injury. He hit a six off the first ball he faced and scored 15 runs from 13 balls in his debut game.
“.@siddhesshlad makes a move to KKR for #IPL2020. Wishing him luck for the future. #OneFamily #CricketMeriJaan #MumbaiIndians,” MI confirmed their move via Twitter on Friday.
