==History==
The Trinidad & Tobago Red Steel were one of the six teams created for the [[Caribbean Premier League]]'s inaugural [[2013 Caribbean Premier League|2013 season]]. In [[2015 Caribbean Premier League|2015]], they won the tournament for the first time, defeating the [[Barbados Tridents]] by 20 runs at [[Queen's Park Oval]].<ref name=tournament/>

Also in 2015, [[Red Chillies Entertainment]], led by [[Bollywood]] actor [[Shah Rukh Khan]] and [[Mehta Group]] of businessman [[Jay Mehta]] and his wife [[Juhi Chawla]], purchased stake in the Red Steel. Red Chillies Entertainment also owns the [[Indian Premier League]]'s [[Kolkata Knight Riders]]; this was the first time an IPL team had invested in a Twenty20 cricket league outside India.<ref name=espn/> In 2016, Red Chillies Entertainment took over the team's operations and changed the name to the Knight Riders. The core team remained the same in 2016, with Dwayne Bravo at the helm. However, the team's marquee foreign player is New Zealand's [[Brendon McCullum]], who has played for KKR in the past. [[Brad Hogg]], [[Javon Searles]], [[Brendon McCullum]], [[Colin Munro]], [[Darren Bravo]] and [[Chris Lynn]] have also played for KKR before. [[Sunil Narine]] and [[Andre Russell]] are the only players who currently plays for both the Knight Riders teams.<ref name="T&T Red Steel no more">{{cite web|url=http://www.guardian.co.tt/sport/2016-01-22/no-more-red-steel-tt%E2%80%88knight-riders-takes-over-cpl%E2%80%88franchise|title=No More Red Steel: T&T Knight Riders takes over CPL franchise|website=The Trinidad Guardian Newspaper}}</ref> [[Simon Katich]] in 2017, replaced fellow Australian [[Simon Helmot]] as the head coach.<ref name="coach">{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/sport/cricket/caribbean-premier-league-simon-katich-to-coach-trinbago-knight-riders/news-story/6fa061c0e0150028377cd9a583599bfb|title=Simon Katich to coach Trinbago Knight Riders|date=17 January 2017|work=[[news.com.au]]}}</ref>
