On the Sunday of the super weekend of the ongoing 11th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), the second match will be played between Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Indore. While Mumbai Indians (MI) defeated KXIP in their last game, RR lost to Delhi Daredevils (DD) in their rain-affected game. The Ajiinkya Rahane led team needs to win 5 out of their remaining 6 games in order to reach the playoffs.

There is no doubt about the fact that both the teams do have surprise packages in their respective squads who can single-handedly take the game away from any opposition. Let us have a look at such players from both the teams:

Axar Patel (KXIP)

 KXIP
Axar Patel

A retention that has failed miserably for Kings XI Punjab. The left-arm all-rounder played in the first two matches for Punjab and was clobbered by the batsmen. he was brought back into the side in the last match. In the match against Mumbai Indians at the Holkar Stadium, Indore, Axar Patel managed to score only 13 runs from 12 balls and bowled only one over which went for 9 runs. Whether KXIP will persist him or not remains to be seen.
