Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) won their 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL) season and performed better than any other team in that tournament, setting a new record for the fewest number of losses experienced by a side.
KKR under Shreyas Iyer’s command became IPL champions for the third time as they beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by eight wickets in the final match.
No doubt it was a special season of cricket for Kolkata as they only lost only three times throughout IPL 2024. This happened in matches against Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Punjab Kings (PBKS), and Rajasthan Royals (RR).
The record for the fewest losses by any team in one season of IPL was held by Rajasthan Royals with three losses during the 2008 tournament.
Nonetheless, Mumbai Indians had two defeats on extra overs but incurred three consecutive losses during IPL 2020.
