Kings XI Punjab began their IPL journey on a successful note as they defeated Rajasthan Royals by 14 runs at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Monday.

Chasing a target of 185, Rajasthan got off to a brisk start as openers Ajinkya Rahane and Jos Buttler built a solid 78-run partnership, which saw Buttler bring up his half-century off 29 balls.

Even after off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin bowled out Rahane for 27, Rajasthan carried on smoothly as Buttler along with Sanju Samson shrugged off the pressure with their 30-run stand.

Ashwin got a major breakthrough as he mankaded Buttler (69) in the 13th over. On replays, the batsman was clearly out of the crease and was given out. Once Buttler left the ground, Rajasthan lost eight wickets for 62 runs and finished their 20 overs at 170/9
