IPL T20 cricket: Kolkata Knight Riders vs Kings XI Punjab

Indian Premier League
The Indian Premier League 2014 Final takes place on Sunday, and will feature a huge game between the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and the Kings XI Punjab (KXIP). Today's IPL 2014 Final will start at 3.30 p.m. BST and can be watched online through live stream via the link provided below. This year's T20 cricket tournament has gone on for 47 days, and after dozens of sixes, and hundreds of boundaries, there are now just two teams remaining. KKR and KXIP will be desperate, having gotten so far, to not fall at the final hurdle, but only one of the teams will be able to lift the trophy at the end of the game. Not many expected to see the Kolkata Knight Riders in the final following the UAE leg of the IPL 2014, where they only managed to win two of their five games. They then went on to lose their first two games when things moved back to India, making them rank outsiders to make the Playoffs. But following that, everything suddenly clicked into place and they won their next seven consecutive games to force their way into the Playoffs, and then destroyed Kings XI Punjab in the first of the Playoff matches. KXIP meanwhile, are widely considered to have been the best team throughout the season, having been the most consistent, and were the first team to make the Playoffs. They have lost the KKR in the Playoffs already, which forced them into Qualifier 2. However, they were able to bounce back from that defeat to win against the Chennai Super Kings. That brings us to this final match up, and it should be a fantastic game between KKR and KXIP, which really could go either way. The game will start at 3.30 p.m. BST and can be watched online through live stream by clicking here.
