Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) will take on Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the IPL 2014 on today, April 28. This will also be the last match both teams in the Middle East-leg of IPL 7. Punjab becomes favorite team to win the title this time after the back to back four victories in four matches. On the other hand, Bangalore has lost their last two matches. They won their first two in the competition.
Punjab showed another side on April 26 when they defeated Kolkata Knight Riders in a low-scoring match. Kings XI Punjab chased down mammoth targets in their initial two matches against Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals and then defended a huge total against Sunrisers Hyderabad in their third with ease. But in their fourth match, they could only manage 132 for nine in 20 overs. But surprisingly a disciplined bowling performance bowled out Kolkata for 109.
On the other hand, RCB star-studded batting line-up collapsed to the third lowest IPL total ever before Rajasthan made short work of the paltry 71-run target in Abu Dhabi.
