This was KXIPs second win on the trot after they went six games without a win before their previous game. "When you havent won too many games in the first seven games, every victory is sweet and picks the mood of the team a lot more," said Rahul

Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) captain KL Rahul has stated that he decided to trust Mohammed Shami with his plan and instinct as they defended a target of six against Mumbai Indians (MI) in the first Super Over at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. The over ended in a tie, thus prompting another Super Over in which KXIP came out on top on Sunday evening.
"You can never prepare for Super Overs. I don't think any team does. Something I have learnt is that you have to trust your bowler's gut," said Rahul in the post-match presentation ceremony, in which he was also adjudged the Player of the Match for his 51-ball 77.
