The coach John Buchanan was replaced by Dav Whatmore. The Kolkata Knight Riders had a fantastic start to the season with two consecutive wins against Deccan Chargers and Royal Challengers Bangalore. That was followed by three defeats at the hands of Chennai Super Kings, Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians. The Knight Riders then made a comeback by winning most of their homes games against Kings XI Punjab, Deccan Chargers and Delhi Daredevils. Despite being tied at 14 points with The Super Kings, Delhi Daredevils and Royal Challengers Bangalore, a lesser net run rate (NRR) meant they eventually finished sixth on the point table.
