Kolkata Knight Riders finally ended their 10-year drought. This team, captained by Shreyas Iyer, won the title by defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad at Chepauk Stadium in Chennai on Sunday. Kolkata had earlier become the winner in 2014. Team owner Shah Rukh Khan had been waiting for the team to win the title for a long time, and as soon as Kolkata won, Shah Rukh Khan was jubilant. His wife, Gauri Khan, was also with him.
