Kolkata Knight Riders may sport new look

Shah Rukh Khan’s IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) seems set for a new look.

ET has learnt that for marketing and communication purposes, the team name is being altered to Knight Riders. This, according to two sources, is to create a pan-India platform for the team.

KKR director, business operations, Colleen Vennings, said: “There is no change of name and it remains Kolkata Knight Riders.”
