5 IPL teams and their EPL equivalents
These teams have fared similarly in IPL and EPL over the years.
4. Kolkata Knight Riders – Chelsea
Kolkata Knight Riders is a widely popular team because of its owners, and the brand of cricket they play on the field. The team from the Eastern part of India has won the title 2 times, and they have a good track record in most of the seasons. The franchise has always been home to some of the superstars of the game. Knight Riders is also known for leaving out some crucial players who became stars in other teams, and that’s why the franchise has a resemblance with the Chelsea team.
The football club from London is one of the most enticing teams in the EPL, as they always consist of some of the recognized names of the game. Chelsea is fondly known as the Pensioners, and they have won 5 titles in their league history. The team won the title in the 2016-2017 season with an unbeaten 13 match streak after a poor start which is similar to the KKR’s tourney in 2014, where they won the title after winning 9 matches on the trot. Like the Kolkata team, the club from London also blows hot and cold in different seasons.
