8.45pm, Kerala Knights v Punjabi Legends
Kerala Knights, the defending champions, were frustrated in their attempts to bounce back from their shock loss to Sindhis last time out by the rain on Sunday night.
Their match against Rajputs was the first T10 League match to be washed out, before the likes of Chris Gayle, Paul Stirling, Kieron Pollard and Paul Stirling – who scored just one run between them on their previous outing – had had the chance to make amends.
Their first second-round opponents, Punjabi Legends, finished bottom of Group B, having suffered hefty losses to Northern Warriors and Bengal Tigers.
