When under-performing Kings XI Punjab return to their home turf (the PCA Stadium in Mohali), on Monday (April 25), to lock horns with misfiring Mumbai Indians, both teams would be eager to break the string of losses and get their campaign back on track with a victory.
Game after game, captain David Miller has .........rued that fact that their batting has fallen short of expectations. Openers Murali Vijay and Manan Vohra have, or at least one of them has, been providing the platform in the early stages. Shaun Marsh has played the role of an anchor of late but has often fallen short of partners at the other end. The biggest factor contributing to their losses is the dry patch of two of their star batsman Miller and Glenn Maxwell. They, given their sheer power-hitting abilities, are potential match-winners that the management can't afford to drop.

The bowling too has been less than ordinary, barring ,,,,,,,,the game against Rising Pune Supergiants when Sandeep Sharma and Mohit Sharma restricted MS Dhoni & Co to a sub-par 152 for their only win in the tournament so far.
Mumbai Indians have had a rather familiar torrid start2345678 to their campaign. While there has been no dearth of individual brilliance, the team has failed to click as a unit. After their initial struggle to find the ideal team combination, the defending champions have been let down by inconsistencies in their performances. The burden of carrying the batting department has been on the shoulders of their captain Rohit Sharma but others have failed to capitalise on the starts. Krunal Pandya, their latest sensation, has impressed with his all-round show but the team's failure to seize the momentum has resulted in one loss after another.

Having lost four games each, both KXIP and Mumbai Indians vvvvvvvvvv are languishing in the 2nd half of the points table. While the defending champions have won two, Punjab occupy the last spot with just a solitary win but have a game in hand compared to Mumbai.
The Kings have home advantage going][][][][]]\] into Monday's clash but they've lost in the three outings in3456 Mohali this season. Mumbai, for the star-studded line-up they have, are favourites on paper.
