Royal Challengers Bangalore would look to gain two crucial points, when Virat Kohli-led side takes on laggards Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) at Sharjah cricket ground on Thursday. KXIP, on the other hand, would take inspiration from a win over RCB previously in IPL 2020. Punjab has failed to lift themselves in the crunch situations and managed to win only one game (against RCB) in Indian Premier League so far. Talking of the playing 11s of both the teams, RCB may bring any changes while Chris Gayle is likely to replace Maxwell in KXIP line up for today's match.
