Smarting from their morale-shattering seven-wicket loss against Rajasthan Royals, Mumbai Indians would look to put behind their disappointment and train their guns on a struggling Kings XI Punjab to return to winning ways in the Indian Premier League on Monday.
The high-flying Sachin Tendulkar-led Mumbai Indians, one of the strong favourites for the title, were brought down to the terra firma by Shane Warne-inspired Royals two days ago at Jaipur, owing to the visitors' batting flop show.
Batting first, Mumbai were stopped at 94 for eight after their top order simply disintegrated and the lower order led by big-hitting West Indian Kieron Pollard failed to prop up the innings leading to a huge defeat, their second in seven matches and biggest thus far in the tournament.
