Kolkata/UNI: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Monday named Dushmantha Chameera as a replacement for England pacer Gus Atkinson for the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.

Chameera will join KKR at a reserve price of Rs 50 Lakh.

The Sri Lankan speedster, who is known for his pace, and can trouble batsmen with his swing and seam movements, was a part of Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 2018 and 2021 IPL seasons, respectively.

He represented Lucknow Super Giants in the 2022 season, where he picked up nine wickets from 12 matches.

IPL 2024 is scheduled to be held from March to May.
