Kings XI Punjab take on newcomers Gujarat Lions in the Indian Premier League (IPL), this evening (6.30 pm UAE time). Both sides look balanced, with a good mix of all-rounders and power hitters. Hosts Punjab are hoping to recover from a poor 2015 season, when they ended at the bottom of the table. South African batsman David Miller is leading the home side, while India’s Suresh Raina is heading Gujarat.
