Team news

Punjab might not want to tinker too much with the side that clinched the last-ball thriller against Kolkata, which means Sunny Sohal will continue at the top of the order in place of Karan Goel. Kumar Sangakkara scored a duck when he opened in the previous match, and might be pushed back to No.3.

Kings XI Punjab: (probable) 1 Sunny Sohal, 2 Simon Katich, 3 Kumar Sangakkara (wk), 4 Yuvraj Singh (capt), 5 Mahela Jayawardene, 6 Irfan Pathan, 7 Tanmay Srivastava, 8 Piyush Chawla, 9 Ramesh Powar, 10 VS Malik, 11 Yusuf Abdulla.

Rajasthan have problems at the top of the order, but Lee Carseldine impressed with 39 in his first IPL outing. Swapnil Asnodkar has scored two ducks in five innings so far, and Rajasthan could consider a replacement.

Rajasthan: (probable) 1 Graeme Smith, 2 Swapnil Asnodkar/ Paul Valthaty, 3 Lee Carseldine, 4 Yusuf Pathan, 5 Ravindra Jedeja, 6 Abhishek Raut, 7 Naman Ojha (wk), 8 Shane Warne (capt), 9 Shane Harwood, 10 Siddharth Trivedi, 11 Munaf Patel.

Stats and trivia

* Spinners have done much better than fast bowlers in Durban so far, and they could have a bigger role to play considering Tuesday's match is a day game. The 36 wickets that spinners have taken have come at an average of 22.55 and an economy rate of 6.72. Fast bowlers have taken 57 wickets at 26.92 and an economy rate of 8.21.

* In nine innings played by Asnodkar, Paul Valthaty, Niraj Patel and Naman Ojha - four of the young Indian talents for Rajasthan - they have scored a combined total of 34 runs at an average of 3.78.

* Rajasthan have been the best bowling team in the first six overs, taking 13 wickets at an average of 17.38 and an economy rate of 6.27. Punjab have taken 14 wickets in the first six, but an average of 20.57 and an economy rate of 7.05.

Head-to-head record

Punjab won their first encounter, in Cape Town, by 27 runs, with their bowlers making quick inroads into Rajasthan's brittle top order, reducing them to 36 for 5 in their chase of a modest target of 140.

Last season, both teams had one victory each against the other: Rajasthan won by six wickets in Jaipur, while Punjab hit back with a 41-run win in Mohali.
