KXIPs horrific start to the season has got fans talking. Many have thrown the gauntlet down on coach Anil Kumble, insisting that he isnt the right candidate to take the club forward. Perhaps, we still need a couple more games to reach a fair conclusion. Expected to lose against SRH on the last match day, Kings XI Punjab did not pull off any surprise, trailing their superior opposition by a staggering 69 runs. A miserable game it was for KXIP, they were condemned to their fourth IPL defeat on the spin. Rahul and Mayank Agarwals floundering openers has been a pain in KXIPs ass. Returning from an injury, Nicholas Pooran was the only bright spark in an otherwise dull Punjab display. Glenn Maxwells performances this season has been pathetic the Aussie costing his side dearly on many occasions.
Lights became a real discovery of the 2019/2020 season and it really is. Few could have imagined this team in the NBA Finals, but good teamwork, team play, the individual leadership qualities of Jimmy Butler, Goran Dragic and Bam Adebayo, as well as the coaching ability of Eric Spoelstra did their job, although not yet completely. Miami knew that beating Indiana, Milwaukee and Boston was nothing compared to the final streak against the Lakers, which did not start well. The Heat’s defense cracked under the onslaught of LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Goran Dragic and Bam Adebayo were also injured. By the way, their performance in the fifth fight is in question. “Lights” managed to catch one victory and all thanks to the character and assertiveness of Jimmy Butler, because the star forward has issued a triple-double, but in every meeting it is impossible to perform so fantastic. In short, Miami has only one chance to stay in the game and continue the final streak, so the club has no choice but to go all-in.
