2011-2013: Adam Gilchrist & David Hussey

Gilchrist shows his dancing skills after taking the only wicket in his career

Australian legend Adam Gilchrist captained KXIP on 34 occasions, the most by any captain for the franchise. He also led the team to the joint-most wins (17), although Yuvraj achieved the same in 29 matches.

Gilchrist, who inspired Hyderabad Deccan Chargers to become IPL champions in 2009, couldn't create the same magic for KXIP. They finished fifth in 2011, and sixth in 2012 and 2013.

The iconic wicket-keeper batsman also had his worst seasons with the bat in terms of strike-rates (129.83, 120.27, 128.38) during this period compared to 137.10 in 2008, 152.30 in 2009 and 156.21 in 2010.

David Hussey also captained the team for 12 matches. Under him, they lost six games and won six.
