The Kings from Punjab have blown hot and cold in the season so far with 4 wins and losses each from 8 games. They lose one to win the next as consistency has not been their best friend in this tournament. Onus will be on skipper Shikhar Dhawan who is fit again and will aim to revive the campaign for his side. The Preity Zinta-owned franchise won’t have it easy as an in-form CSK is up against them.
