3 itemsUpdated Mar 23, 2026

Kolkata Knight Riders are the third-most successful IPL franchise with three titles, spread across three different eras of the tournament. Their first two titles in 2012 and 2014 were built under Gautam Gambhir's tough, team-first leadership, while the 2024 title under Shreyas Iyer ended a 10-year drought in dominant fashion. The 2024 final — where KKR bowled SRH out for just 113 and chased it in 10.3 overs — is statistically the most one-sided IPL final in history. KKR's titles have always featured outstanding individual performances: Manvinder Bisla's 89 (2012), Manish Pandey's 94* (2014), and Mitchell Starc's 2/14 (2024).
