KKR VS Gujrat lions Match Preview
We have seen momentum shifting in T20 games frequently and instantly. How often do we see a momentum shift in points table? that too in a tournament featuring 8 teams. Only SRH has ensured a playoff berth, but unsure if they’d end up in top 2 spots. Three out of four seats are wide open including the first spot. Even RCB, Which is sitting at no2, is yet to secure a playoff’s berth.
Both Gujarat and KKR have 2 games head. Whichever team wins this match are certain to grab playoff spot. Even a loss is not curtains, but makes a playoff spot distant. Especially for Gujarat, Whose NRR is the worst of all the teams, cannot afford to dip their run rate further. Raina is set be back and lead the side after paternal leave.
Whichever team wins the toss will definitely look to bowl first, Both the teams are known to be good chasers. Even its a batting paradise, Toss winning team will not let opposition to play to their strengths. Kanpur will host this crucial encounter which is a night game.
Its seems better for Gujarat to go back their debut opening combination, Finch and McCulumn, Finch doesn’t seem to have adapted to fourth position well. Instead they can play Faulkner to add bowling depth and play persist with current opening partnership.
Changes are anticipated from both sides. Raina is sure to be back for Gujarat. Shivila Kaushik is also likely to fell prey to Virat’s belligrant’s against him. Andre Russell is injured and uncertain if he is fit play to play this match. In his absence Chris Lynn might get a chance. Brad Hogg might come into play in place of Sunil Narine or Morne Morkel.
