Kolkata Knight Riders became the new champions of the Indian Premier League as they defeated Chennai Super Kings by five wickets in an exciting final to win their first IPL tournament on Sunday. Chennai Super Kings had earlier won IPL in 2010 and 2011 season and were hoping to win it again while Kolkata Knight Riders had never performed well in the earlier seasons.
Kolkata Knight Riders batted second and chased 191 in 19.4 overs in a 20 over match. Man of the match went to Manvinder Bisla. Player of the season also went to Kolkata Knight Riders team member Sunil Narine.
