Indian spinner Jagadeesha Suchith is all set to feature for Kings XI Punjab in the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) after a successful move from Delhi Capitals. 

"Left-arm spinner Jagadeesha Suchith will represent Kings XI Punjab in the VIVO IPL 2020 following a successful trade by Delhi Capitals," Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah stated in a press release. 

Karnataka player Jagadeesha joined Delhi Capitals last year when he replaced injured Harshal Patel, who was ruled out of the 2019 IPL owing to a fracture in his right hand. 

However, Jagadeesha appeared in just one game for the Delhi-based franchise last season, scoring six runs and picking up two wickets.  

Jagadeesha first had a taste of the IPL in 2015 when he was picked up by Mumbai Indians and played 13 games in his debut season.

The 2020 edition of the IPL is slated to take place from March 23 and will continue till May 12.
