KXIP vs CSK IPL Highlights: KL Rahul scored a 36-ball 71 for Kings XI Punjab© BCCI/IPL

Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) have beaten Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by 6 wickets and 2 overs to spare in their last league match at the IS Bindra Stadium in Mohali on Sunday. After CSK posted 170/5 in their 20 overs, KXIP chased down the target courtesy of two blitzkriegs -- primarily by KL Rahul (71 off 36 balls) and then by Nicholas Pooran (36 off 22 balls). CSK will play the Qualifier 1 in Chennai on Tuesday. Whether they will face Delhi Capitals or Mumbai Indians will be decided later tonight. KXIP finish IPL 2019 at 6th spot. They will be disappointed after the brilliant start they enjoyed to the season, but will be glad they have got one over the league leaders CSK. Earlier, CSK were sent to bat first by KXIP captain Ravichandran Ashwin, who won the toss. KXIP started well, with Sam Curran (3/35) getting Shane Watson's wicket early on. Faf du Plessis (96) and Suresh Raina (53) put on a 120-run partnership before Sam Curran removed Raina against the run of play. Faf du Plessis shifted gears after reaching his fifty and at one point of time it looked as if he would take his team's total near the 200-mark. However, it was Curran who had the last laugh against the South African too, getting the ball to deflect off his pads into the stumps. CSK's ambitions of going for the final push received a jolt with Curran's late strike, and it was further jolted by two wickets by Mohammed Shami (2/17 ) in the last over. (SCORECARD)

Pooran is playing for the fun of it, it seems. Doesn't have any equation on his mind. See loose ball, smash loose ball seems to be the modus operandi here. Ravindra Jadeja finally brought on to bowl.

Six! Nicholas Pooran
Pooran goes big. Mandeep Singh is in the middle with him. So, KXIP need 45 runs off 8 balls to push CSK down the table. CSK's hold on their place in Tuesday's Qualifier 1 seems ensured. KXIP need 45 runs in 42 balls to win. That should be within their grasp.

5 runs off the 8th over
An over by Bravo against the run of play. Just 5 runs off it. Dhoni was seen having an animated talk in the team huddle just before this over. They shall be aware of the NRR situation. They can afford a defeat today, they just need to ensure they do not let KXIP win with 5.4 overs to spare. If that happens, they drop below DC on the NRR column, and risk dropping down to third spot if MI win later today.

Another six for Gayle
KXIP move on to 85/0 after 7 overs. CSK will start to be worried here. Their place in the top two could be in danger if KXIP carry on at this rate. They shall drop below DC on the NRR column if this Gayle-Rahul show gets out of hand.
