Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) stand as a premier franchise in the Indian Premier League, owned by Bollywood icons Shah Rukh Khan, Juhi Chawla, and Jay Mehta. Their home ground is the iconic Eden Gardens stadium. Renowned for celebrity ownership, KKR marked their IPL debut in 2008 and clinched the championship twice, in 2012 and 2014. Boasting a record 14-match winning streak, they are a force to be reckoned with. The team's mantra is "Korbo, Lorbo, Jeetbo Re" (we will perform, fight, and win!), with purple and gold as their official colors.
