Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) kept their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 playoff hopes alive by winning a fourth successive match after Arshdeep Singh and Chris Jordan triggered a batting collapse for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Dubai on Saturday. Asked to bat first, Punjab could manage only 126/7, but it proved just about enough as KL Rahul marshaled his squad brilliantly to register the lowest successful defense this season. The win helped Punjab climb to fifth place in the points table. They now have 10 points from 11 matches (five wins and six defeats).  Hyderabad are sixth with eight points from an equal number of matches (four wins and seven defeats). Catch highlights here.

PREVIEW

The first-leg clash between Kings XI Punjab and Sunrisers Hyderabad ended in a 69-run win for SRH. The venue was Dubai and Sunrisers Hyderabad, batting first, scored 201 runs for six wickets. Jonny Bairstow missed a well-deserved century by three runs but it was the England wicket-keeper-batsman's 160-run opening wicket stand with skipper David Warner (52) that took the match away from Kings XI Punjab.

Rashid Khan and SRH pacers Khaleel Ahmed and T. Natarajan then shared the wickets to restrict the KXIP batsmen. Nicholas Pooran smashed a 37-ball 77 but rest of the KXIP batting just collapsed handing SRH a big win.

KXIP have a more settled look now. That is evident from the way they have been winning their recent games. The inclusion of Chris Gayle has definitely added muscle to the top order where skipper KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal have played leading roles in almost every game. Pooran has also proved his mettle and it was the West Indian's good work (53 off 28 balls) that saw KXIP surprise Delhi Capitals in Dubai on Tuesday.

SRH have some good news. Manish Pandey and Vijay Shankar came good in a 140-run third wicket stand against  Rajasthan Royals on Thursday to give some much-needed middle order boost to the SRH batting that has been dependent on David Warner and Jonny Bairstow. In many ways, the KXIP vs SRH match could be won or lost by the middle-orders. Jason Holder's inclusion in the SRH XI also proved to be  good move.
