“Kings XI Punjabu2019s season opener against Delhi Capitals was marred by a controversial u2018short-runu2019 call from the umpire and a heartbreaking performance in the first Super Over of the 13th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL).u00a0. But in such fast-paced tournaments, thereu2019s not much opportunity to sit and reflect. So, the KL Rahul-led side will have to pick themselves up, shrug-off their shoulders and shift the focus to their next game. Next up they face Royal Challengers Bangalore; two teams yet to win the coveted title. The Bangalore side started their campaign with a win against Sunrisers Hyderabad, powered by an outstanding knock from 20-year-old Devdutt Padikkal.u00a0. Come Thursday, both teams will come into the match with different intentions. RCB will be looking to hold on to their form and KXIP are on the prowl for their first win this season.u00a0. Here we take a look at the Dream 11 fantasy team of the day:. WICKETKEEPERS:. KL Rahul and Josh Philippe. The KXIP skipper will be looking to lead from the front as his team tries to script a comeback. In the last match, Rahul got off to a steady start but fell victim to Mohit Sharma.u00a0. The swashbuckling Western Australian wasnu2019t allowed to show his prowess with the willow against Hyderabad, but the RCB gloveman can sure be a handful for the opposition.u00a0. BATSMEN:. Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, Mayank Agarwal and Devdutt Padikkal. Going into the RCB game, it is really difficult to keep out the talismanic duo of Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers. With the ability to change any game on their day, it could be costly not owning the two in your fantasy teams. Add to that de Villiersu2019 exploits in the last match, he will be taking the armband for our Dream 11 squad. Agarwal and Padikkal both displayed fantastic batting tenacity and technique up the order and fans will be hoping for the same. ALL-ROUNDERS:. Glenn Maxwell and Shivam Dube. Thereu2019s not much to argue against Glenn Maxwell at the moment. He might have had a bit of a stutter in the last game, but heu2019s coming on the back of an impressive series against England.u00a0. Against SRH, Dube turned with the ball. In his three overs, the all-rounder picked up two wickets and had a meagre economy rate of five. He can be adding with the bat when called upon. BOWLERS:. Yuzvendra Chahal, Mohammed Shami and Sheldon Cottrell u00a0u00a0. Whou2019s Chahalu2019s favourite opponent in the IPL? Itu2019s Kings XI Punjab. Against the Punjab franchise, the spinner has taken 19 wickets against them at an average of 16.0 and a strike rate of 12.4.u00a0. On the other hand, Shami is an IPL veteran. After the paceru2019s recent exploits in the match against Delhi Capitals, where he scalped three wickets and gave away only 15 runs from his quota of overs, he kinda picks himself. For our last pick, we turn our attention to the Jamaican pacer and his signatory celebration. Cottrell made his mark in the last match with two wickets, however, the pitches in the UAE have shown that there is something for the quick bowlers and we tip the 31-year-old to make the most out of it.u00a0. u00a0. Captain: AB de Villiers. Vice-Captain: Glenn Maxwell. #KingsXIPunjab #RoyalChallengersBangalore #KXIP #RCB #Dream11 #ABdeVilliers #ViratKohli #GlennMaxwell #DevduttPadikkalu00a0.”
