Jacques Kallis joined as the head coach of the Kolkata Knight riders in 2016 and the Kolkata side has played 3 seasons under him. He had previously played for KKR as an overseas player and was well-versed with the culture of the KKR camp before taking up the coaching role.

He played a pivotal role in ensuring that KKR reached the Playoffs stage in all the 3 seasons in IPL 2016, IPL 2017 and in IPL 2018. In all the 3 seasons under him, KKR could not reach the finals and were eliminated in the playoffs. Kallis will have that in his mind while he prepares for the IPL 2019 edition. With increased firepower having brought in the likes of Carlos Brathwaite and retaining their core group of players, Kallis will want KKR to go that extra mile in IPL 2019.

In total he had ensured 26 wins in 47 matches for the Shahrukh Khan Owned side. His winning percentage of 55.32 sees him coming into our list as the 3rd best coach by win % among all the coaches of IPL 2019 teams.
