Rajasthan Royals v Kings XI Punjab - IPL T20 Match
Chris Gayle

KXIP’s star opening batsman Chris Gayle’s form has dipped over the last 5 games but he would take solace in the fact that in his 1st game this season, he dismantled the CSK attack and paved the way for his team’s victory. That 33-ball 63 set him on the path of a superb season and a repeat tonight is something that the KXIP would be hoping desperately hoping for.

However, it must be pointed out that CSK’s South African fast bowler Lungi Ngidi did not play in that game and his pace in the Powerplays is going to be a challenge for Gayle. He has picked up 5 wickets in 4 games and gone for only 7.14 runs an overs so far. In his last game, he returned figures of 2/14 and he would relish bowling fast and at Gayle’s body early on. Whoever wins this battle will almost certainly give his team an upper hand in this game.
