Mid-table side Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) will look to get their campaign back on track after a couple of defeats when they lock horns with bottom-placed Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) in Indore on Sunday. While Kings XI Punjab are placed fourth in the table with five wins and three losses from eight appearances, inaugural edition winners Rajasthan Royals are last with three victories and five defeats. While they would regret letting Mumbai Indians off the hook at the Holkar International Stadium last night, Kings XI Punjab have a side capable of making a turnaround. Put in to bat, Kings XI Punjab failed to capitalise on a good batting track and barring Chris Gayle's 40-ball fifty, no other top-order batsmen stood up. It was Marcus Stoinis' (29 not out off 15 balls) last-over blitz that carried Kings XI Punjab to 174/6.
