IPL 2012 (May 3): KXIP in top four -- Updated Points Table/Team Standings

 Bangalore, India (Thu, May 03) – Pakistan’s ex-Test cricketer and all-rounder Azhar Mehmood sparkled as Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) managed to grab the thriller against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) yesterday night here at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, India.

IPL 2012 (May 3): KXIP in top four -- Updated Points Table/Team Standings
Punjab won the toss and invited the hosts to bat first. Chris Gayle (71 off 42) was destructive in the beginning; but once he was trapped by in-form Azhar Mehmood in 16th over at 126/2, RCB lost their way and managed to put just 158 on board. Virat Kohli (45 off 42) also played a handy knock. Azhar Mehmood grabbed 3/20 in his four overs to claim man-of-the-match award.

Punjab did well in the first half of their batting, but quick wickets in the end put them in a bit of trouble as they lost 4 wickets for reaching 154 from 146. The tail-enders held their nerves to get through on the second last ball of the last over.

KXIP has come in the upper half in the points table with this all important victory and standing on fourth spot. Delhi Daredevils are still leading the table, followed by KKR and Mumbai. (Detailed and updated points table, with respective team positions, is presented above.)
