The Kolkata Knight Riders have been able to win two titles in the history of the tournament under the leadership of Gautam Gambhir. KKR’s tenure in the Indian Premier League under Gambhir is marked as their golden period wherein the team witnessed immense success. However, ever since the former Indian opener left the team, the franchise couldn’t maintain their high performing standards and their performance started to decline in the competition. However, the franchise looks good enough to repeat glory once again and win their title of the cash-rich league.
