About Kolkata Knight Riders

Kolkata Knight Riders, owned by Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, brings glamour and cricket passion together. Playing at the iconic Eden Gardens, KKR has one of the most passionate fan bases in cricket.

The franchise's turnaround under Gautam Gambhir's leadership from perennial underperformers to two-time champions is one of IPL's great stories. Players like Sunil Narine (whose mystery spin revolutionized T20 bowling), Andre Russell (the most destructive finisher in IPL), and Gambhir himself created KKR's winning identity.

The "Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo Re" (We will do, fight, win) anthem reverberates through Eden Gardens, creating an atmosphere matched by few sporting venues globally.

KKR's brand combines Bollywood glamour with cricketing substance, making them one of IPL's most visible franchises worldwide.
