Shahrukh Khan’s Kolkata Knight Riders on top

Shahrukh Khan's bold decision to acquire Gautam Gambhir at the phenomenal price tag of $2.4 million is paying big rewards. Half-way through the current season the Kolkata Knight Riders have announced themselves as worthy contenders to win it all.

For a team that has mostly finished at the bottom in past seasons of the IPL, the current KKR team has given Shahrukh lots to celebrate and cheer about. With Gautam providing stability at the helm, the team has won 5 of their 8 matches and now sits on top of the points table.

This is very different from past seasons, where nothing seemed to have worked for the KKR, there were a number of off-field controversies, poor decisions in coaching and Sourav's quarrels with Buchanan and Brendon McCullum.

Earlier in the season, SRK had declared that he will take off his shirt and show his abs if his teams makes it to the finals of the ongoing T20 tournament. Poonam Pandey may have chickened out of her promise to strip after India's world cup win, but Shahrukh Khan will surely stick by his word.

They may have not done it before by team KKR seem set to storm into the semi-finals.
