History


The Trinidad & Tobago Red Steel were one of the six teams created for the Caribbean Premier League's inaugural 2013 season. In 2015, they won the tournament for the first time, defeating the Barbados Tridents by 20 runs at Queen's Park Oval.[2]

Also in 2015, Red Chillies Entertainment, led by Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan and Mehta Group of businessman Jay Mehta and his wife Juhi Chawla, purchased stake in the Red Steel. Red Chillies Entertainment also owns the Indian Premier League's Kolkata Knight Riders; this was the first time an IPL team had invested in a Twenty20 cricket league outside India.[1] In 2016, Red Chillies Entertainment took over the team's operations and changed the name to the Knight Riders. The core team remained the same in 2016, with Dwayne Bravo at the helm. However, the team's marquee foreign player is New Zealand's Brendon McCullum, who has played for KKR in the past. Brad Hogg, Javon Searles, Brendon McCullum, Colin Munro, Darren Bravo and Chris Lynn have also played for KKR before. Sunil Narine is the only player who currently plays for both the Knight Riders teams.[3] Simon Katich in 2017, replaced fellow Australian Simon Helmot as the head coach.[4]
