Kolkata Knight Riders 2016 Squad: Kolkata Knight Riders has retained 15 players from last year’s squad which failed to qualify for knockout stages. 9 indian players and 6 foreign players has been retained. Gautam Ghambir will continue to captain Kolkata while local players like Piyush Chawla, Robin Uthappa, Umesh Yadav and Yusuf Pathan are some of the names retained by Kolkata.
It was a steal for KKR when they got a hard-hitting batsman like Colin Munro for his base price while they didn't have to spend too much to get hold of the West Indian skipper Holder. Having already retained the bulk of their squad, KKR concentrated on adding strength to their bench.
