The 24th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 will take place between Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Saturday.
KXIP veteran Chris Gayle may replace Glenn Maxwell who is struggling to get runs in IPL 2020. Given the ground dimensions, the Punjab-based franchise could be tempted to bring in an extra batsman for this clash.
KKR, on the other hand, will continue to stick with the same combination that earned them a come-from-behind win against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK).
