Robin Uthappa has been a vital cog of the side since his addition in 2014. He began his IPL stint with Mumbai Indians in the inaugural edition from which he was released the following year. He spent two years in his home-based franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore and was later released. He then became part of Pune Warrior India's IPL venture before being a part of Shahrukh Khan's co-owned side in 2014. He was bought for ₹5 crore at the auctions.

Robin Uthappa has been phenomenal in Knight Riders' successful journey in the IPL. He was the orange cap holder in the 2014 IPL season and he played a major role in KKR's victorious campaign that year.

He was retained ahead of the 2018 mega auctions and is retained by KKR, this year as well.

Playing for KKR, the wicket-keeper batsmen have amassed 2157 runs in 72 innings which is phenomenal.
