The Kolkata Knight Riders generally known as KKR are is


franchise cricket team representing the city of Kolkata in the Indian
Premier League. The team is owned by Bollywood actor Shahrukh
Khan, actress Juhi Chawla and her spouse Jay Mehta. The team
is coached by Jacques Kallis. The home of the KKR is Eden
Gardens, the largest cricket stadium in India and the second largest
in the world by seating capacity.
Although the team has gained immense popularity due to its
association with celebrity owners, it was surrounded with
controversy and poor on-field performance through the first three
years of the tournament. The team's performance, however,
improved from the fourth season as it qualified for the IPL playoffs
as well as the now defunct Champions League Twenty20. They
eventually became the IPL champions for the first time in 2012, by
defeating Chennai Super Kings in the final and repeated the victory
in 2014, by beating Kings XI Punjab. The Knight Riders hold the
record for the longest winning streak by any Indian team in T20s.

The leading run-scorer of the team is Gautam Gambhir, while the


leading wicket-taker is Sunil Narine. The official theme of the team
is Korbo, Lorbo, Jeetbo Re (we will perform, fight and win!) and
the official colours are purple and gold. The brand value of the
Knight Riders was estimated at $99 million in 2017, second highest
among IPL franchises.
