Both Kings XI and Rajasthan Royals eager for a win

Kings XI Punjab are on a roll. A thrilling win against Kolkata Knight Riders has elevated them to the second spot in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and they will be looking to maintain their position when they face defending champions Rajasthan Royals here in Durban Tuesday.

The last time both the sides met each other at Cape Town, Kings XI Punjab had the last laugh winning the match convincingly by 27 runs. At Kingsmead here, Rajasthan Royals will be looking for nothing less than a win to take revenge.
