They had won their 3 matches from 5 and currently standing at the 4th place while KL Rahul and Chris Gayle starrer Kings XI Punjab are at the bottom-place as they manage to win just a single game in this edition of Dream11 IPL 2020. However, their big gun Chris Gayle can be available for the side for the first this season, which gives an extra advantage to them, so let's hope they tick in all departments here today against the all-mighty Knight Riders but it surely won't be an easy task for them.

KL Rahul led Kings XI Punjab have the forgettable IPL season so far as they manage to win a single match so far in the ongoing season of Dream11 IPL 2020. They have won only one game against Virat's Men in Red Royal Challengers and it looks like the worst season for them till now. But they have enough capabilities to change it and come back strongly, so they are searching for a desperate win here against the Knight Riders in today's IPL match.
Kolkata Knight Riders have played 5 matches till now in this season of Dream11 IPL 2020 in which they have won the three and loss their 2 matches. The Kolkata-based Franchise KKR is standing at the 4th place in the points table with 6 points from their 5 matches played so far. They will take KL Rahul's Kings XI Punjab today at Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium in a double-header Saturday. Let's hope that they give their best effort against Kings XI today.
