Introducing Kings XI (KIN-XI) FanCode ECS Italy Bologna

Kings XI, the team from the "Pianura Padana" were hotly fancied to do well at their ECS debut last summer but flattered to deceive with just a solitary win to show for their efforts. Kings will be a much better side for that experience and impressed during their magnificent run to the final of the T20 Championship and the Coppa Italia last year, succumbing to Italian treble winners Brescia in both.

Kings style seems well suited to the T10 format with good batting and bowling depth in their ranks. Kings XI enjoyed a dream run at FanCode ECS Italy Bologna winning a couple of improbable games including a then highest ever run chase of 152 against Baracca Prato. KIN-XI remained unbeaten in the tournament winning all seven of their games.
