21.15 IST: OUT! Another one bites the dust! Rajasthan continue to lose their way! This is an irresponsible stroke from Gowtham, his team desperately needed him to stay out there.

Strategic break!
20.34 IST: Samson takes a stride ahead and pats it through cover to keep strike. RR 66/2 in 8 overs

Axar is back on.
20.29 IST: FOUR! Shot! Ash bowls a half-tracker outside off, SS camps back and cuts it solidly through backward point. RR 56/2 in 6.5 overs
20.28 IST: SIX! Tonk! That's what the sound made of the bat. Flatter one on the stumps, Sanju stays deep in the crease and smacks it over the long on fence for half a dozen. RR 52/2 in 6.3 overs
20.27 IST: NOT OUT! Impact is outside the line! Buttler survives a scare and he should thank Samson who asked him to take the DRS. Floated delivery around off, Jos gets into the position to play the reverse sweep but misses to get rapped on the pads. A loud appeal follows and it's upheld by the umpire. Buttler has a chat with Sanju and he sends it upstairs. There is no inside edge and Ball Tracker shows the impact to be outside the off stump. The on-field call has to be overturned.

20.18 IST:
20.17 IST: OUT! That's a clean take from Chris Gayle! Two wickets inside the Powerplay and Rajasthan are dented early. Flatter through the air, a bit shorter in length and served around off. Rahane goes deep in the crease to cut that away but there is a bit of zip and bounce on this one which takes the outside edge and lobs towards short third man. Galye stationed there, dives forward and takes it inches above the ground as the ball was dying in front of him. The big man gets his fingers under the ball and starts to celebrate. The umpire refers it upstairs and replays show it's a neat work from the Universe Boss. Rajasthan Royals 35/2 in 3.4 overs vs Kings XI Punjab

Ajinkya Rahane goes for a cut shot but is caught by @henrygayle in what is a brilliant effort.

20.15 IST: Has Gayle taken a blinder? Seems like and he is claiming as well. However, the umpire wants to be sure and hence the ask for some help from the TV umpire. Rahane is the man in question....

20.09 IST: FOUR! More runs! 17 off the over, what an over for Rajasthan after an early loss of Short. Back of a length delivery on middle, Jos sits back and pulls it through mid-wicket. Away she races for a boundary, 4th off the over. RR 24/1 in 2 overs
20.08 IST: FOUR! Slashed! Short of a length delivery outside off, Buttler slaps it with disdain behind point for a boundary. RR 20/1 in 1.5 overs
20.06 IST: FOUR! Pummelled! Short of a length delivery on middle, Buttler swivels inside the crease and pulls it non-nonchalantly over mid-wicket for a boundary. RR 12/1 in 1.2 overs

20.01 IST: OUT! Straight up in the air! Smart piece of bowling from Ashwin. He slows it through the air, lands it around middle and leg, D'Arcy Short has a slog across the line but is done in by the slowness on the ball. Gets a big top edge as the ball goes high up in the air towards mid on. Andrew Tye settles underneath it and takes a good reverse cup catch. Another failure for Short. Early strike for the hosts.

Brief Preview: Mid-table side Kings XI Punjab will look to get their campaign back on track after a couple of defeats when they lock horns with bottom-placed Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League on Sunday at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore. While Kings XI Punjab are placed fourth in the table with five wins and three losses from eight appearances, inaugural edition winners Rajasthan Royals are last with three victories and five defeats.
Like KXIP, RR too are coming off two straight defeats, but the Punjab outfit is placed much than its next opponents and is pretty much in with a chance to qualify for the playoffs. While they would regret letting Mumbai Indians off the hook at the Holkar International Stadium last night, Kings XI Punjab have a side capable of making a turnaround
