23:50 hrs IST: That's it. Thank you for joining us for today's match at Mohali. See you all tomorrow for the clash between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Rising Pune Supergiants. 

Parthiv Patel (Man of the Match): "Wicket was dry and Rayudu is a fantastic player in good form. I wasn't in good form and batting with him helped me. Hopefully the momentum will get me through."

Rohit Sharma (MI skipper): "It means a lot, considering our last few games hasn't gone the way we wanted to. We played like we are known to, this is the performance we have been expecting. The stand between Parthiv and Rayudu set the game for us."

Sanjay Bangar (KXIP's head coach): "I thought we bowled pretty poorly in this game. 190 on the track on the large outfield was always going to be challenging. 50-50 things haven't gone out way. No excuses for a poor bowling effort."

Before the tournament began on April 9, Mumbai Indians were billed as the most settled unit in IPL 2016. With a support staff that boasts of a wealth of international experience, Mumbai Indians still remain the strongest unit on paper. Their performance on the field, however, has been to the contrary.

With four points from six matches, MI, like last the last two seasons, are struggling. Rohit Sharma and Krunal Pandya's form are the only bright spots for a team yet to find a winning combination.

Englishman Jos Buttler has not justified his Rs 3.8 crore price tag while Kieron Pollard is yet to inject the Calypso magic into a young side.

MI could make at least two changes tonight. Kiwi opener Martin Guptill, who came in for Lendl Simmons, could replace Pollard while Unmukt Chand may get a game ahead of Parthiv Patel.

Kings XI Punjab have suffered due to the abject failure of their captain David Miller and big-ticket player, Glenn Maxwell. Barring Shaun Marsh, KXIP's foreign connections have been a serious letdown.

Manan Vohra, Murali Vijay and Axar Patel have done well but the lack of performance by the middle order has hurt KXIP.

Monday's clash will be a test of redemption for several players, mainly the overseas giants on either side.
