Salaries of KKR players in IPL 2020
Earlier in the auction, the Knights shelled out INR 15.5 crores for Pat Cummins., making him the second most expensive buy in the history of the IPL.
18. Tom Banton- INR 1 crore
Tom Banton came into the fore after the T20 Blast in England where he honed his skills for Somerset alongside the very talented Babar Azam. The youngster was then called up in the Three Lions’ national team as well.
Banton has gone on to play the Abu Dhabi T10 league and the Big Bash League as well. For the Brisbane Heat, he once hit spinner Arjun Nair for five sixes in an over. He will be keen to replicate something similar in the IPL.
19. Rahul Tripathi- INR 60 lakhs
Rahul Tripathi showed his class for the Rising Pune Supergiant in 2017. Hence, in the next year, the Rajasthan Royals picked him up. To his dismay, he shuffled around the batting order and hardly got chances to open.
The Royals stuck with him for a couple of seasons before freeing him off his services. Tripathi will now be playing for the Knight Riders. He can form a pretty formidable opening combination with Shubman Gill.
