The 2010 season was a forgettable one for the Kings XI Punjab as they finished last in the group stage. They managed to win only four wins out of fourteen games they played. The team was led by the Sri Lankan captain Mahela Jayawardene who tried every possible way to get the team out of trouble but fell short. When others in the team failed to deliver, he stood up and scored some important knocks finishing as the sixth highest getter of the season and the leading scorer for his team.

His century(110* off 59 balls) against KKR at the Eden Gardens was one of the finest of the season. Even though his approach was orthodox, his strike rate(147.31) proved that big hitting was not the only way to score. He accumulated 439 runs in 13 matches at an average of 43.90 in that season with plenty of entertainment to the fans.
