Over the past 16 years, the Indian Premier League (IPL) has unfurled a slew of remarkable moments for its devoted fans. In its inaugural year of 2008, the Rajasthan Royals (RR), led by the illustrious Shane Warne, defied expectations to clinch the coveted trophy. Throughout their campaign, they showcased remarkable consistency, securing victory in a league-record 14 matches. This milestone remained unchallenged until 2014 when the Punjab Kings (PBKS) matched their feat by triumphing in 8 matches.
After 16 thrilling editions of the league, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) stand tall, boasting the record for the longest winning streak. Their triumphant run saw them emerge victorious in 10 consecutive matches during the 2014 IPL season.

Which team has the most consecutive wins in IPL History?
Any team needs to stay consistent throughout the Indian Premier League season. A victory in a match serves not only to uplift the team's morale but also to infuse a sense of confidence that reverberates throughout subsequent encounters. Attempting to secure consecutive triumphs becomes a focal point for IPL franchises, as it paves the way for the accumulation of formidable momentum. Nevertheless, pursuing consecutive victories remains an arduous effort, with only a select few teams managing to sustain a winning streak spanning beyond six matches. As mentioned above, KKR holds the record for the longest winning streak in IPL. Here is the list:
Team | Wins | Season |
Kolkata Knight Riders | 10 | 2014 -15 |
Kings XI Punjab | 8 | 2013-14 |
Chennai Super Kings | 7 | 2013 |
Royal Challengers Bangalore | 7 | 2011 |
Kolkata Knight Riders | 6 | 2012 |
Mumbai Indians | 6 | 2008 |
Rajasthan Royals | 6 | 2008 |
Chennai Super Kings | 6 | 2014 |
Leading the pack on this list is the Kolkata Knight Riders, claiming the apex position with an impressive streak of 10 consecutive victories. In the 2014 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), KKR found themselves teetering on the brink of playoff disqualification. However, under the captaincy of Gautam Gambhir, the Kolkata Knight Riders surged ahead, clinching victory in nine successive matches and ultimately seizing the IPL 2014 championship title. Building upon this triumph, they extended their streak by emerging victorious in the inaugural match of IPL 2015.
