With a new captain and coaching staff, a lot was expected of Kings XI Punjab in Indian Premier League 2020. They had built a promising squad in the auction and were looked at as strong contenders for a spot in the playoffs.
However, the one word that sums up Kings XI Punjab’s IPL 2020 campaign is: heartbreaking.
KXIP have competed in all 13 editions of the T20 tournament but have reached the playoffs just twice, the last of which was way back in 2014 when they topped the league stage but lost in the final. And in IPL 2020, they had a rollercoaster of a run and finished in sixth position.
KXIP's results in every IPL season
| Season | League stage finish | Playoff result |
|---|---|---|
| IPL 2008 | 2nd | Lost in semi-final |
| IPL 2009 | 5th | –– |
| IPL 2010 | 8th | –– |
| IPL 2011 | 5th out of 10 | –– |
| IPL 2012 | 6th out of 9 | –– |
