Kings XI Punjab will need to win both their remaining two games to be in fray for an IPL play-off berth and pacer Mohit Sharma says it is always good to have pressure as it brings out the best in a team.


Needing a win today to keep their play-off hopes alive, Kings XI produced a clinical bowling effort to beat Kolkata Knight Riders by 14 runs on Tuesday night.


"I think it is important to have pressure on you. If there is no pressure, then there is a problem somewhere.

Pressure is important when you are playing because it can bring out the best," Mohit said.

Kings XI will take on table toppers Mumbai Indians in Mumbai today before facing Rising Pune Supergiant in Pune on Sunday. "T20 is such a game where big names don't matter. A team is as good how it performs on a given day, which is what counts. The team which plays its best game on a given day wins," Mohit said "In Twenty20 cricket, you must have seen that a team which is number one loses against a team which is placed at number eight position.

"We will focus on our processes and try to execute our plans well in the upcoming games," he added.
