The Kolkata Knight Riders, it is understood, did not want to be left without a wicketkeeping option should they qualify for the playoffs.
With Angkrish Raghuvanshi ruled out for the season due to concussion and a finger injury, the franchise was left with only one Indian wicketkeeper in Tejasvi Dahiya, who featured in the last league game against Delhi Capitals.
Since KKR had a realistic chance for a playoff spot until the conclusion of the 69th league game between Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals, they signed Luvnith Sisodia, a wicketkeeper-batter, as cover.
