Kings Xl Punjab vs Kolkata Knight Riders Match Preview
David Miller's team are coming into this game on the back of their first win of the tournament against MS Dhoni's Pune Supergiants and will be keen to continue their momentum when the face the Knight Riders.The win would immensely boost their confidence ahead of the KKR tie.
In their last game, openers Manan Vohra and Murali Vijay knit a 97-run partnership to set up the chase. Glenn Maxwell has also found form but captain David Miller and Shaun Marsh need to pull their socks up.

On the other hand Gautam Gambhir's led side, meanwhile, are also coming into the game following a dominant win over bottom placed Sunrisers Hyderabad. They were boosted by the return of Sunil Narine and following a wicket-less first match, the West Indian will be keen to get on the board. The skipper has led from the front with his batting, which has seen him notch up consecutive 50+ scores, and Kings XI will be wary of letting him continue his form.
It will also be a challenge for KXIP spinners like Axar Patel as KKR is one side which has quality batsmen against slow bowlers.The best part about KKR's campaign so far has been Gambhir's form as he is on top of the run-getters' table with 192 runs at a healthy strike-rate of 125.49. He has been playing the role of sheet anchor to perfection as has forged a good opening partnership with Robin Uthappa.

However with a three-pronged spin attack of Narine, Piyush Chawla and Shakib Al Hasan, KKR can put the KXIP batting to test which has not been very consistent in their three matches so far.Apart from these three, KKR also have veteran chinaman bowler Brad Hogg, who has also done well in the two matches that he has played.

Kings Xl Punjab vs Kolkata Knight Riders IPL 2016 13th Match Prediction
Kings Xl Punjab have 55% winning chances over Kolkata Knight Riders as Punjab Cricket Association Stadium is their Home Ground and they must have experienced this much but extreme form of Gautam Gambhir can change the side of match.
