According to Cricbuzz, Akashdeep will not be able to play a single match in the next season.
According to Cricbuzz, an official of Kolkata Knight Riders said that Akashdeep is out of IPL 2026. KKR had bought Akashdeep in the mini auction by bidding Rs 1 crore.
KKR’s tension increased
The troubles for Kolkata Knight Riders are not showing any signs of abating. First Harshit Rana has been ruled out, who was injured during the warm-up match of the FT20 World Cup 2026 against South Africa. On the other hand, Mathisha Pathirana has not yet been approved by the Sri Lanka Cricket Board. In such a situation, Pathirana may also remain out of the initial matches.
The training camp of Kolkata Knight Riders team started from March 18, but Akashdeep did not participate in it from the beginning. It is being told that he is currently undergoing rehabilitation process at BCCI’s Center of Excellence in Bengaluru. There has been no update regarding where he got injured and how his health is now.
Akashdeep has a long history with injuries as he has been active in the Indian Premier League for the last four seasons, but due to injuries, he has been able to play only 14 matches in his IPL career, in which he has only 10 wickets to his name. Last season, Lucknow Super Giants signed him for Rs 8 crore, but LSG released him after just one season.
