Kings XI Punjab's new opener Karan Goel, who made his mark against Delhi Daredevils, feels the Indian Premier League (IPL) will be a learning curve for him.

Goel and England's Ravi Bopara are the new openers for the Punjab team. The left-handed Goel knows that he has a huge responsibility to shoulder as Kings XI's last year's southpaw opener, Australian Shaun Marsh was the tournament's top-scorer.
