Vijay tried to resurrect Punjab's season by taking over the leadership

Kings XI Punjab had endured a torrid time at the start of 2016 with David Miller not quite settling into the captaincy. With things going nowhere, a switch in captaincy was suggested to bring about a change in their season. Murali Vijay, the former Chennai Super Kings opener, was handed the leadership role and he delivered with a win.

Vijay played a captain's knock in the second meeting of the 2016 edition between Gujarat Lions and Punjab. He made a half-century to guide his team to 154, a fighting total on the pitch. It turned out to be enough as Gujarat Lions were bowled out 23 runs short.
