It has been almost 2 weeks since the IPL 2026 season started and some teams are already seen taking the lead. There are some teams too which have not had a good start. There is also a team which has not got a single win yet but its batsmen are far ahead in terms of scoring runs. (Photo: PTI)
This team is Kolkata Knight Riders, which has lost 3 out of its first 4 matches, while the only match in which it did not lose was canceled due to rain. Due to this, Kolkata still has 1 point in its account. (Photo: PTI)
But in terms of scoring runs, its captain Ajinkya Rahane and young batsman Angkrish Raghuvanshi are ahead of many legends. Both these batsmen are currently included in the top-5 in the Orange Cap race. (Photo: PTI)
