IPL 2017 - Kings XI Punjab vs Kolkata Knight Riders: KKR win toss , opt to field

Kolkata Knight Riders will bowl first against Kings XI Punjab in an Indian Premier League (IPL) 2017 game at Mohali. With eight wins from 12 games, Gautam Gambhir-led Kolkata Knight Riders take on an inconsistent Kings XI Punjab in an IPL 2017 match in Mohali. 

The Gautam Gambhir-led Kolkata Knight Riders are now at second spot with 16 points and will look to consolidate their position with a win



over KXIP, who suffered a six-wicket defeat against Gujarat Lions in their 11th game. 

Glenn Maxwell-led Kings XI Punjab, on the other hand, have a slender chance to make it to the play-offs as they have only five wins from 11 matches and are placed at the fifth spot with 10 points. They now need to win all their remaining three matches if they have to have any chance of making it to the knock-out stage.
