Punjab rose to second in the IPL table as they scored their fifth straight win over Bangalore Royal Challengers on Monday.

Some players from the team interacted with a select group of under-16 cricketers in a 'Chota Champions meet Kings XI' event organised by Spice Telecom at the KSCA on Tuesday.

"If I am your age I would be excited and would have constantly questioned the cricketers present here. For these kids, it's a nice opportunity to learn from us," Yuvraj told the youngsters.
