Jaipur, Apr 19 (IBNS): After Kolkata Knight Riders' victory against Rajasthan Royals on Wednesday night, franchise co-owner and Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan shared a beautiful message for the players who scripted three wins so far in the 11th edition of Indian Premier League.

Khan took to Twitter to say he is glad to be a part of the Knight Riders team.

His tweet reads, "So glad to see the babies r settling in, Curran Mavi & Gill. Dk Piyush Rana Kuldeep Robbie all showing the way to them. Sunil remains Sunil & Andre & Lynn ready to explode. Wow! Am I glad to be in ur team! #KKRHaiTaiyaar"

Riding on spinners and batsmen, Knight Riders outshined Ajinkya Rahane's Royals by seven wickets.

Apart from the brilliant show by spinners, batsmen Robin Uthappa, Nitish Rana and Dinesh Karthik guided the team to yet another win in the ongoing tournament.

The win against Royals took Karthik and his men to the top of the IPL standings with six points.

Knight Riders will play next against Kings XI Punjab at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Saturday.
