Kings XI Punjab, though being one of the initial teams to be formed right form the inception of the Indian Premier League has not had a very successful run in the IPL. Kings XI Punjab is yet to win an IPL tournament. However, there were the runners up in 2014. They were defeated by the Kolkata Knight Riders in the Final Match of IPL 2014. Though that match was a nail biter till the last minute, the KKR took the cup by three wickets.
In the other editions of the Indian Premier League, Kings XI Punjab didn’t fair very well. The team reached semi-finals in the first edition of the IPL. In rest of the season of IPL, except the performance in the year 2014 where they reach the finals, They were confined to the league level matches.
Let’s hope they perform better this season with a renewed energy.
