Kolkata Knight Riders will take on the in-form Punjab Kings in a thrilling IPL contest on April 15. Both teams have won three matches each and have encountered similar kinds of fortunes.

KKR lost two of their first three matches but bounced back with two wins in the next three games. Their current position in the IPL table doesn't really reflect their form but Ajinkya Rahane's side would be hoping to hit their ground running when they come face to face against Shreyas Iyer's Punjkab Kings.

Ramandeep Singh Ready To Don Finisher Role For KKR

Ramandeep Singh has been a vital cog in the KKR setup but hasn't really fired his bat in the ongoing season. Opportjunity has been pretty scarce this season, but ahead of the PBKS encounter, the 28 year old reveals his intention of being a finisher for KKR this season.

As quoted by the Indian Express, he said at the Press Conference, “KKR have given me the role to come in at 5,6 or 7 and do what the situation demands and to make the team win. We learn from every situation and it helps us to analyse our game too. My target is to make myself as a match winner for the team and I try to be fearless in my approach right from the first ball of my innings whether the ball is in my area or not. After the 15th over, whatever the situation is, I back myself. And the same goes for every one of us. If I talk about myself, I never thought I would make my Indian debut after last year’s IPL but then my task is to work towards being my best and not to think about results. Rest is in God’s hands.”
