The Kings X1 finished second in the table in 2008 but could not repeat their league form in the knockout stages, after they were beaten by eventual runners-up Super Kings.
They could be hindered by Australian bowler Brett Lee's fitness concerns, but will be hoping Shaun Marsh, Kumar Sangakkara and his Sri Lankan team-mate Mahela Jayawardene continue where they left off last year with the bat.
England's Ravi Bopara and Jerome Taylor of the West Indies were the team's only two purchases at the auction in Goa.
