Kolkata Knight Rider Team News
Former champions Kolkata Knight Riders made headlines when they broke the bank to sign Australian star Pat Cummins and when the season gets underway all eyes will be on the Australian to make a mark and justify his price tag.
Apart from Cummins, the Knights also will have the services of England's World Cup winning captain Eoin Morgan. Morgan who was a former Knight's player was picked up by KKR for Rs. 5.25 crore. But despite having the World Cup winning captain in their ranks, KKR head coach Brendon McCullum had confirmed that Dinesh Karthik will continue to lead the Kolkata team
Kolkata Knight Riders' Past IPL Record
The Kolkata Knight Riders have won the title twice in the past. The first time the Kolkata team laid their hands on the trophy was in 2012. The second time the Knights lifted the trophy was in 2016.
In the last edition the Knights narrowly missed out on the playoffs and with a solid team for the upcoming edition, KKR will certainly hope to comfortably reach the playoffs.
