Kings XI Punjab to face Rajasthan Royals today

In the 4th match of IPL 5 Kings XI will play against Rajasthan Royals in Sawai Mansingh stadium of Jaipur. The match will start at 8 pm in the evening and will be shown live on Set Max.

Both the teams will try to start their IPL campaign on a winning note. Rahul Dravid is the skipper of Rajasthan while Adam Gilchrist will lead the Punjab side.
