KXIP’s IPL 2020 campaign ended on a disappointing note once again as they failed to reach the playoffs. Under the captaincy of KL Rahul, Punjab finished the season at the sixth spot with six victories from 14 games. KXIP had a disastrous first half in the IPL 2020 as they managed to win just one of their opening seven matches of the season.

But they bounced back in style in the second half and won five games on the trot to put themselves in contention to reach the playoffs. However, they failed to carry forward the momentum as they lost their last two games and bowed out of IPL 2020. KXIP have not made it to the playoffs since their appearance in the final in 2014.
