Their next competition will be against Kolkata Knight Riders and a win over them will put KXIP on the right side of the points table. It is a must-win game for both teams.
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR)
Andre Russell watched the game against DC from the stands. He’s nursing a hamstring strain and is unlikely to be rushed back. If fit, KKR team management will be having a huge headache of which overseas player they can drop. Apart from that, they didn’t need much of the change in the XI as Sunil Narine has got his form back
Probable XI: Shubman Gill, Nitish Rana, Rahul Tripathi, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Sunil Narine, Eoin Morgan (c), Pat Cummins, Shivam Mavi/Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Lockie Ferguson, Prasidh Krishna, Varun Chakravarthy.
Kings XI Punjab (KXIP)
Mayank Agarwal missed the last game due to some injury and if manages to make a quick recovery, he will be expected to replace Mandeep Singh. KXIP also needs to consider thinking more about the current form of Glen Maxwell, who has failed to deliver for the team more often than not.
Probable XI: KL Rahul (c, wk), Mayank Agarwal/Mandeep Singh, Chris Gayle, Nicholas Pooran, Glenn Maxwell/James Neesham, Deepak Hooda, Chris Jordan, M Ashwin, Ravi Bishnoi, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh.
