Preity's Kings upset SRK's Knight Riders

The actress is wondering if her staying away from the IPL matches makes her team win

Preity Zinta's team, Kings XI Punjab, put up a smashing performance to win their second IPL match against Shah Rukh Khan's team, the Kolkata Knight Riders. Preity's team had been on a losing streak, but at the match played at Kolkata today (April 4) they reached the Knight Riders' score of 201 with 10 balls to spare.

Preity wasn't at the match at Eden Gardens, but she was thrilled with the result. She posted on her Twitter account, "YE HA ! Was in Jammu so was out of reach there4 was missing at d game & on twitter! A Much needed win 4 d boys ! TING :-) dimple is back !"

She added later about her team and SRK's team, "MAHELA was brilliant ! SANGA and YUVI ROCKED ! 4 all those who supported us ... THANX & MUAAAAAAAAAAAAH !! Wish KKR all the best ahead !"

And Preity noticed that her team won when she wasn't there, saying, "What was wonderful was the collective team effort today ! Maybe I should stay out of the stadium d next game ! What say u guys ?"

Meanwhile, SRK was subdued in his post-match Twitter update. "We let this one slip by. all the more difficult to qualify. well done kings 11. now have to play fearlessly. gayle was superb. fielding aaaghh."

So whose team do you think will make it ahead in the IPL matches? SRK has actually said that he will dance naked if his team wins the IPL championship this year!
