Sydney/Kolkata, Apr 26 (IBNS) Australian cricketer Usman Khawaja might replace injured English player Kevin Pietersen in IPL side Rising Pune Supergiants.

He went unsold during the Indian Premier League auction in February.

"He (Khawaja) is a guy we are surely looking at," Pune coach Stephen Fleming was quoted as saying by Cricket Australia website.

"There is a shortlist we are working through so looking at availability and Visas and the likes, but he is certainly a guy we are interested in," he said.

Pietersen was ruled out from the ongoing season of the IPL due to injury.

"@KP24 won't be representing us this season anymore due to an unfortunate injury. We wish him express recovery!" the IPL side tweeted.
