On the other hand, there is Kolkata Knight Riders, another humdinger, placed second in the points table on the back of four wins out of the five matches played. Their success can be attributed to the comeback of Shreyas Iyer, the return of Mitchell Starc to form, the massive innings by Phil Salt, and the exceptional batting of Sunil Narine. The team has defeated SunRisers Hyderabad, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Delhi Capitals, and Lucknow Super Giants.
