Kolkata, April 14: A disappointed Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) skipper Glenn Maxwell on Thursday (April 13) said Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) rollicking opening stand and his side's loss of three wickets in the 18th over led to their 8-wicket defeat in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2017 match here.

The Kings struck 170/9, despite losing the set pair of David Miller and Wriddhiman Saha as also Axar Patel in the same over to Umesh Yadav, which somewhat slowed down their run rate in the slog phase. (Match highlights)
