After losing first two matches back in India, KKR embarked on a stunning winning spree of nine matches. Seven of these matches were in the league stage. Gambhir and Uthappa dominated with the bat and KKR ended second in the league stage with nine wins from 14 matches.
They then defeated Kings XI Punjab twice (Qualifier One and Final) to emerge Champions for the second time. Uthappa finished as the highest run-getter of the tournament (Orange Cap) with 660 runs while Narine topped the wickets list with 21 scalps.
