This has been the story in past few matches for the Kings XI Punjab. KL Rahul has been in sublime form throughout the IPL, but the lack of support from the other end has left the Karnataka-lad out of options. He has carried his bat for past couple of matches and succeeded in taking his team over the line against on the first occasion.

Even today, chasing 246 to win, Rahul gives his side some hope as he started toying with the bowlers. It was a valiant effort for his 66 runs that came from 29-balls, glorified by seven huge sixes and two fours. After his departure, it was just a matter of time when things folded for the home team as they always found themselves short of the target.
