Kings XI Punjab was jolted by Mumbai Indians in their previous encounter by a vast margin of seven wickets while Rajasthan Royals were defeated by MI by a difference of 25 runs. KXIP still rules the seventh Edition of the IPL with 18 points from 12 games and RR is occupying the third spot with 14 points from 12 matches. It is going to be a real important game for the latter since they will anticipate winning it and confirm their berth in the top four.
