After pulling off a stunning win against the Royal Challengers Bangalore, thanks to an unbelievable hundred from David Miller, Kings XI Punjab will look to carry forward the momentum when they take on Rahul Dravid's Rajasthan Royals in their IPL 2013 game in Mohali.
Kings XI are currently sixth in the points table with just five wins in eleven matches, and know they need to win at least four of their final five games to guarantee a playoff spot.
Rajasthan Royals, on the other hand, are comfortably placed in third with eight wins in 12, but the bulk of those victories have come at home, with the side not faring too well in away games.
"The last one was an outstanding win against a quality side and we're high on confidence after that," Kings XI coach Lehmann told reporters.
"Now again we're up against a side that has been in very good form. But it's nice to be at home considering all teams' home domination. We now have only one away game and the rest of them are at home. So, it's time to make hay while the sun shines."
Lehmann said Kings XI will have to seize the big moments if they are to chart their way to an improbable place in the playoffs in IPL 2013.
"We've probably played well 80 per cent of the times in most games but have missed out because we have failed to seize the big moments," Lehmann said.
"We've missed a catch here and there, or not taken our chances with the bat or ball. We haven't been able to trust our plans right in those games, in crunch situations. However, I thought we did that really well the other night -- against RCB. In the remaining games starting Thursday, we really need to make sure we get that 20 per cent right too."
Miller has been the standout player for Kings XI in this tournament, but Lehmann said the team would make a decision on the South African's batting position based on the state of the game.
"He can bat anywhere," Lehmann added. "It is just the way things have shaped up at the moment that he's batting at five. He batted at four when we chased down 185 against Pune Warriors. It depends on the bowling attack and the match situation. But he can bat anywhere and still score runs."
