First Choice - KL Rahul, Chris Gayle, and Glenn Maxwell

Other Options - Nicholas Pooran, James Neesham, and K Gowtham

KL Rahul is one of the smoothest hitters in the shortest format of the game and his ability to hit the ball in any of the corners of the park makes him a difficult batsman to bowl at. The flashy opener exhibited his capacity in 2018 against the Delhi-based franchise - DC, when he slammed a 14-ball 50 which is the fastest in IPL history.

Chris Gayle is the most successful batsman in the history of T20 cricket and that has earned himself the self given the title of 'universe boss'. Despite turning 40 a few months ago, the T20 legend will be considered as the most explosive batsman going into IPL 2020.

Glenn Maxwell was the most successful batsman for KXIP when they reached the IPL final in 2014. The Australian cricketer has the strike rate of 161 in the cash-rich tournament and will be a key contender to bat in the super over.

The Preity Zinta co-owned side is blessed to have more firepower in Nicholas Pooran, James Neesham, and K Gowtham in their rank, if and when needed.
