Kolkata Knight Riders will play aggressive cricket in the final, reveals http://www.senore.com/Cricket/G-Gambhir-c1447 – Cricket News Update
Gautam Gambhir, Kolkata Knight Riders’ skipper, is geared up for the final of the fifth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) against Chennai Super Kings and expressed that his team will play an attacking brand of the game in the all-important fixture.
After four ordinary seasons of the cash-rich league, Kolkata has finally made it to the final of the tournament and as per most of the cricket pundits, Gambhir’s men are favourites to clinch the title, even though, Chennai is peaking at the right time.
The best part about Kolkata has been the combination they have developed in the current season. Gambhir and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sunil-Philip-Narine-c91869 have been their prolific performers this year but all the other guys have contributed whenever their team needed them the most.
Many former cricketers have lauded the leadership of Gambhir in the fifth IPL season. The left-handed opener has fired up in all the matches and this is the major reason why he has got the best out of his team.
The Delhi-born cricketer made it clear that his team will take the field against Chennai in a very attacking mode and will hold the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bull-c48831 by the horns.
"When you go on to the field, you do not go there to make friends but you are there to get results in your team's favour. You have to be aggressive on the field. That is how we have won matches and now we are in the final and not to just compete," Gambhir
expressed.
On the other side of the coin, Chennai’s captain, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MS-Dhoni-c2028 has also praised the captaincy of Gambhir and appreciated his aggressive instinct. The wicketkeeper/batsman admitted that his teammate in the Indian team is a more attacking captain than
him.
Dhoni said, “Unlike me, Gautam is a very aggressive captain. I'm not saying I'm not aggressive but he is more expressive on the field than me. Even when the game is in his pocket, he demands that his team wrap it up in style.”
The final is going to be a test of nerves of the two leaders and it remains to be seen who emerges as the winner.
