Kolkata Knight Riders announced the replacement player for Alex Hales on Friday.
Alex Hales, who was picked up by Kolkata Knight Riders in the recently concluded Mega Auction, has withdrawn citing bio bubble fatigue.
Aaron Finch also appeared in the auction but went unsold. He has played in 87 IPL games and has 2000+ runs.
IPL will begin by the end of March, on March 26, with Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders locking horns in the repeat of last year’s final.
