The 2024 Indian Premier League was an unforgettable season for the Kolkata Knight Riders. Their previous captain, Gautam Gambhir, returned as their coach, and the team was unstoppable throughout the league stages and into the championship match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, who were just as formidable. It was the ideal season for them. However, the squad took a risk by firing their IPL-winning captain, Shreyas Iyer, and instead relied on the team’s seasoned players.
Prior to the IPL 2025 mega auction, the reigning champions kept six players: Harshit Rana and Ramandeep Singh (INR 4 crore each), Rinku Singh (INR 13 crore), Varun Chakravarthy, Sunil Narine, and Andre Russell (INR 12 crore each). They appeared to have a strategy at the auction table and shocked everyone by paying an incredible INR 23.75 crore to repurchase their released player Venkatesh Iyer. On March 22, they will take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Eden Gardens in the opening match of the 2025 Indian Premier League.
