Kings Eleven Punjab (KXIP) suffered a fourth loss in their fifth game of IPL 2020 as Chennai Super Kings (CSK) trounced them by 10 wickets at Dubai International Stadium, Dubai on October 4 (Monday).
While Punjab have been on the losing end in the first two weeks of the IPL, their skipper and batting lynchpin KL Rahul has led from the front with his spectacular efforts with the willow in almost every game the franchise has played.

Rahul's half ton against CSK was his second off the tournament and his third straight 50+ score against Chennai Super Kings in the IPL.
