Dubai, September 23: Kings XI Punjab will look to put behind the controversial 'short run' decision in their IPL 2020 opener and start afresh when they take on Virat Kohli's Royal Challengers Bangalore here on Thursday (September 24).

Be a part of the exciting clash through details like the Dream11 tips, Playing XI and form guide etc.

1. Team News: Royal Challengers Bangalore

RCB opened their campaign on a winning note defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad by 10 runs. Devdutt Padikkal started his IPL career on a classy note hitting a sublime half-century and will once again be in focus, while AB de Villers will also look to continue in the same vein following a crucial half-century.

Both Kohli and Aaron Finch looked good and would be itching to spend more time in the middle. Yuzvendra Chahal, as always, will be the key man in the RCB bowling attack. However, RCB will miss the services of South African all-rounder Chris Morris who has picked up a side-strain.

Umesh Yadav continues to leak runs in the IPL and going by his showing in the first game, he could be replaced by Mohammad Siraj. It remains to be seen if the team can fit in England all-rounder Moeen Ali in the middle-order. With Josh Phillippe being chosen as the specialist wicketkeeper batsman to start with, Ali can only replace Dale Steyn in the eleven.


2. Team news: Kings XI Punjab

Kings XI began the IPL 2020 with a defeat against Delhi Capitals. Mayank Agarwal looked in imperious touch but was gutted to not be able to get his team over the line with just one run required to win. Skipper KL Rahul, Glenn Maxwell and Nicholas Pooran will be expected to step up. Big hitter Chris Gayle, who was left out of the opener for better balance in the eleven, could be back and batting all-rounder Jimmy Neesham could also be given a chance.

KXIP's bowling is spearheaded by Mohammed Shami, who proved his high worth in the team's opener. Young leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi will go into the game more confident, having impressed against Delhi Capitals.
