Deccan Chargers vs. Kolkata Knight Riders: Bowlers to look out for in Deccan Chargers line-up
The Deccan Chargers will play the Kolkata Knight Riders on Monday and it will be a tough challenge for both the teams to win their first match of the Indian Premier League season. The Chargers have got some good bowlers in their line-up and these bowlers
are quite capable of giving a tough time to the Knight Riders.
Dale Steyn will most definitely be the main strength of the Chargers line-up and will add a lot of strength to their bowling line-up. Steyn had a good spell in the first match and took 2 wickets off his 4 over spell.
Steyn is one of those bowlers which one cannot take out of the equation for long and one expects him to bowl his heart out in each spell of the match. His last spell was a good one and he would be quite motivated against an under pressure Knight Riders line-up.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Dale-c52110 bowls some impressive in-swingers in the early over’s and can trap a few batsmen leg before with his delivery. His line will not be easy to score boundaries off of and he can bowl some economical over’s to build pressure on the KKR batsmen for the later
phases of the match.
Maninder Bisla has a good tendency of going for some drives in the early phases and could easily end up edging some deliveries off Steyn to the keeper. Steyn would also be required to provide some motivation to his fellow bowlers.

Riders. The Deccan Chargers do not have a lot of options in their fast bowling line-up and Ishant will have to bowl with a lot of responsibility during his spell.
His off stump line will be the real deal and he could tempt batsman like Jacques Kallis to play some risky shots in the cover region. He can also bowl an economical over and it will definitely motivate him to bowl with more aggression and discipline to the
KKR batsmen. If he can give 20 or 25 runs during his spell then he could take the initiative away from KKR batsmen of getting a good foundation for the last ten over’s.
Pragyan Ojha is another bowler of prominence in the Deccan line-up and can prove destructive for the KKR batsmen. Though, Ojha proved too expensive against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rajasthan-c837 Royals but his spinning ability can never be undermined and he can easily take some crucial
wickets during the early overs. KKR has more dangerous batsmen in their line-up and this will tempt Ojha to bowl with more flight during his spell. He can also mix his variety against batsmen like http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Manoj-Tiwary-c1890 and Yusuf Pathan, and can tempt them to drive
uppishly in the cover region. Overall, Deccan bowlers can bowl with an effective plan to the KKR batsmen.
