Hyderabad, April 15: After breaking the home-jinx with a 33-run win against Royal Challengers Bangalore yesterday, a confident Deccan Chargers will take on Adam Gilchrist-led Kings XI Punjab, who are equally on a high after their splendid victory over Chennai Super Kings.
One can expect a cracker of a contest at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Uppal tomorrow, as both teams square off after recording convincing victories in their previous matches after not so great starts.
Interestingly for both’keeper captains Kumar Sangakkara and Gilchrist, it will be a reversal of roles as they will be pitted against a side they have captained during the last season.
While Gilchrist was Deccan Chargers skipper for the last three editions, Sangakkara had unsuccessfully led the KXIP during their worst ever finish last season.
