Despite playing six matches in the tournament, KXIP are still struggling to find their bearings. With four losses on the trot, KL Rahul’s team are yet to click as a unit. They have lost five matches out of the six and have been relegated to the bottom of the leaderboard. In their previous encounter against Sunrisers Hyderabad, chasing a mammoth total of 202, opener’s Mayank Agarwal and skipper KL Rahul who’ve been fantastic in the series, got out at 9 and 11. The middle-order woes which have been haunting KXIP since the start of IPL 2020, caved in again. Nicholas Pooran’s blistering innings of 77 off 37 deliveries couldn’t get them over the line as he didn’t get any support from the rest of the eight batsmen who quickly returned to the dug-out with single-digit scores. They were all out for 132 in 17 overs.

Kolkata Knight Riders have done well in their last few games. Except losing to the formidable Delhi Capitals, they held on their nerves in the last four matches. Their recent 10-run win over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) was quite special, KKR team management’s decision to promote Rahul Tripathi as the opener and pushing Sunil Narine to number 4 clicked. Tripathi took control and scored 81 runs off 51 deliveries to give KKR a decent total of 167. KKR bowlers managed to defend their total with a mix of resourceful bowling spells in the middle by Sunil Narine, Varun Chakravarthy and Andre Russell. The win against CSK propelled KKR to the third spot in the points table.
