Rahul Dravid at midwicket

Ravi Bopara clubbed Kings XI Punjab to its primary IPL conclusion this flavour with a pitch strong 85 against City Stag Challengers here on Friday. Bopara's 59-ball remark contained fivesome sixes and figure fours. Set a mark of 169 to win, Punjab knocked off the runs for the death of just trey wickets with one over to unneeded. Kings XI's gap yoke began watchfully and saw off a niggardly Praveen Kumar to add 52 in 6.4 overs, before Karan Goel was caught swindle of his view by Vinay Kumar's skillful discombobulate from the bag man bounds.
In came Kumar Sangakkara, who was handed a clemency nearly directly when his unintelligible top advance off Pietersen was fumbled by Rahul Dravid at midwicket. Bopara continued unabated, noise Kallis for six over midwicket and edging one to the third man extremity; Kings XI sat pretty on 80 for one at the midway tactical timeout, requiring another 89 runs in 10 overs to win. Anil Kumble and Jesse Ryder slowed things imbibe after the injure. Sangakkara made 26 (18 balls) before he attempted to go after Kumble and was caught at endless off. Kumble done his quota of quaternion overs with one wicket for a fastidious 19 runs.
