Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) will host the 52th match of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2019 against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the IS Bindra Stadium, Mohali on May 3.
KKR snapped a six-game losing streak to record a 34-run victory over Mumbai at Eden Gardens last week to revive their chances of a playoffs berth.
Placed sixth in the points table, KKR are one of the teams in the slugfest for two remaining spots. Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals have already booked their place in the knockout stage.
R Ashwin’s side are a rung below KKR at seventh and have lost their last three games.
They were washed away by a dominant Sunrisers Hyderabad in their last outing, largely due to David Warner’s brilliance and Kings XI bowlers not putting up a good show collectively. It was a rare off day for Afghanistan spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman as he went for 66 runs.
