KXIP vs KOL Today Match Prediction Team News :
Kings XI Punjab have only one win from six matches and are at bottom of the points table. In the first three-four matches Punjab played well but in the last two matches their performance was very poor. Neither their batsmen nor their bowlers are stepping up. In bowling Sheldon Cottrell and Shami have been struggling to take wickets with new ball and spinners aren’t controlling runs flow in middle overs and in death overs they just get smashed all over the park and in batting their top order batsmen are scoring runs but they have no support from the middle order and the likes of Maxwell, Sarfraz Khan and Mandeep Singh have let them down big time.
On the other hand, Kolkata Knight Riders are going well and now they have a inform opening pair in Shubman Gill and Rahul Tripathi who can set the platform for the likes of Eoin Morgan, Andre Russell, Nitish Rana and Dinesh Karthik. In bowling Pat Cummins, Shivam Mavi and Kamlesh Nagarkoti have been good with their pace bowling and in spin Varun Chakravarthy has been most impressive and all rounder Andre Russell too is bowling well in death overs.
