Over The Years – Throwback:
It’s been an incredible journey so far for the Knight Riders in the IPL. They have managed to conseal 2 IPL titles so far in the year 2012 by beating CSK and again in the year 2014, by deafeating KXIP. This team is indeed a tough competitor for all other 7 teams in the league and is also famous as it has the Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan as the co-owner. This team also has a majority of all the power hitters in the world like Lynn, Narine, Russel, Gill and Karthik. The inaugural match was also starring the KKR team which had an incredible start by an 100 by Mccullum. The fans of KKR die to make a visit to the stadium to support their team. We wish this year goes out well for the Knight Riders.
The Home ground:
Full of noises all around the Eden gardens. This stadium is one of the noisiest stadium in India which supports a loyal fan base for the home team. This ground supports the biggest crowd capacity than any other stadiums in India and is also the most beautiful stadium. It has a crowd capacity of 1 lakh seats and a completely covered atmosphere. The pitches here at the Eden Gardens are high scoring and getting 200 would be quite an easy task for any of the IPL teams here.

Stars from KKR:
We have a lot of stars who have emerged from KKR and made it into the Indian cricket team. Many young talents like S Gill, Nitish Rana, Nagarkoti and also Prasidh Krishna will soon be able to make their dream come true. Successful stories from KKR were Kuldeep Yadav, Manish Pandey, Karthik etc who entered the Indian team with the KKRian support. We wish there are more budding talents this year too.

The team will undergo a seven day quarantine at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Dubai and later go on with the net sessions immediately after the quarantine period. We hope this season goes out good for the Knights and we expect the 3rd trophy to return back to India.
