NEW DELHI - Jacques Kallis will not play for Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL from next season, but will continue to remain with the franchise in his new role as mentor and batting consultant. "KKR has been my Indian family for the last four years. I have built fantastic relationships with the management and the players and have been very fortunate to assist KKR in winning two IPL events," Kallis said. "Over the past year, I have had a chance to think about my future and when KKR approached me with this long-term offer, I jumped at it."
