Kolkata http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rajasthan-c837 Royals: KKR bowlers
The unpredictable Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have played two matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and have won one of these matches when they defeated Deccan Chargers by a margin of 6 wickets.
KKR will next play Rajasthan Royals and their bowlers would be looking to corner the Rajasthan Royals.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Iqbal-Abdulla-c1596 is a bowler of prominence within KKR’s line up and has the potential to bowl some healthy overs in his opening spell.
He was quite awesome against Deccan Chargers and took 3 wickets in his opening spell (4-0-24-3), which also included the wicket of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/JP-Duminy-c1742.
Iqbal is an impressive young spinner and has the tendency of giving good flight to his deliveries. His line was the real problem for the Deccan batsmen in the last match and he could again use this ploy against the Rajasthan Royals batsmen.
Iqbal changes his pace quite cleverly and batsmen like http://www.senore.com/Cricket/J-Botha-c1610 could easily end up playing some mistimed shots off his bowling. If he manages to keep things tight during his spell, then he would definitely take the initiative away from batsmen.
JD Unadkat is another bowler to watch out for in the KKR line up and could add a lot of dimension to the KKR bowling line up.
Unadkat is a promising left arm bowler and took 2 wickets from his 4 over spell (4-0-36-2) against the Deccan Chargers. Though, he was a bit expensive in his bowling spell, he showed a lot of skill in his bowling.
Bowlers such as Balaji have not been delivering the goods for KKR and it would be a good opportunity for Unadkat to shine. Unadkat has a good action and this factor helps him in bowling some block-hole deliveries.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gautam-Gambhir-c58623 could use him in a phase where some urgent economical overs would be required. He bowled some good Yorkers against Deccan Chargers and these Yorkers could prove beneficial at the depth over’s.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Bhatia-c82926 is another bowler of significance within the KKR line up and has not given too many runs. Bhatia gave 29 runs off his 4 overs against the Deccan Chargers and also took 2 wickets during his spell.
Bhatia bowls impressive out-swingers and maintains a good line on middle and off stump. He has a tendency of trapping batsmen leg before wicket.
All rounders such as Yusuf Pathan and Jacques Kallis could also be useful for a couple of overs and they could pick up some crucial wickets during their spell.
