Kings XI Punjab have chased down a target of 177 runs in just 18.4 overs with 8 balls to spare in their match against Mumbai Indians. KL Rahul played a pivotal role in KXIP chase of 177 runs who stayed on crease throughout the innings and took his team across the line.
Kings XI started cautiously with Chris Gayle hitting 40 runs off 24 balls before getting out in 8th over. Mayank Aggarwal too played a better innings of 43 runs off just 21 balls.
While Punjab has virtually turned Mohali into a fortress, Mumbai Indians have quite some issues in middle order with Keiron Pollard failing more frequently and no bowler supporting Jasprit Bumrah.
The next encounter is also on the line as Delhi Capitals have won the toss and chosen to field first against Kolkata Knight Riders.
