Desperate for a berth in the Indian Premier League (IPL) play offs, a resurgent Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) will aim to go for the kill when they face a down and out Gujarat Lions at the IS Bindra Stadium here today.


Kings XI find themselves at the fifth spot in the IPL standings after registering two consecutive wins -- against Delhi Daredevils by 10 wickets last Sunday and then a 19-run win against bottom-placed Royal Challengers Bangalore in Bengaluru on Friday.

Gujarat Lions on the other hand, have just three wins from 11 games with six points to languish at the penultimate spot. On Friday, all-rounder Axar Patel smashed a 17-ball 38 and then followed it up with 3-11, to keep the Punjab side’s chances of qualifying for the play offs alive.
