Although the side is yet to win the title, their jersey certainly has won it.

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR): It is once again from the inaugural season, as KKR were already in the headlines for having owned by Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan. Also, being led by one of the most successful Indian captains back then, Sourav Ganguly, fans fell in love with the team. What was even fascinating was their jersey, that was mostly black. However, the borders of the jersey that was highlighted by the golden colour, made it the most energetic jersey of all. While fans continue to don it to date, the side doesn't, owing to their misfortunes in the opening three seasons, as they have had success with their ongoing purple patch.
