Kings XI Punjab

E-mail Print

On the face of it, Kings XI have got their hirings desperately wrong. If their New Zealand, West Indies and Australia pros must return home to play Test cricket, it leaves this side threadbare, vulnerable and very much the dark horse in the fray.

If that's the case, Punjab may not appear threatening to the other star-studded sides.

Tom Moody has a proven track record as coach, something that Yuvraj Singh doesn’t as captain.

More than any other team, this side needs to make a solid beginning, for the going may get tougher after their international pros return home.

Gambhir's fifty, Mishra's fiver script Delhi win
Delhi Daredevils skipper Virender Sehwag must have had sweaty palms when he handed the ball over to Amit Mishra for the last over, but the leg-spinner came up tops to ensure that Hyderabad Deccan Chargers were kept behind by 12 runs.

In the match against Chennai Super Kings, Sehwag had handed the ball to Shoaib Malik with exactly the same number of runs - 15 - to get, and Delhi lost the match.
