Pune Warriors v Kolkata Knight Riders - IPL 5 - Toss Report
In the 70th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL), Kolkata Knight Riders have won the toss and elected to bat against Pune Warriors at Subrata http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Andrew-Symonds-c44611 Sahara Stadium, Pune.
The match hold little important for Pune as they are already out of the competition, while KKR, who are number-two spot on the points table would be looking to strengthen their position in the final four by beating the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Warriors-c861.
Nonetheless, fans would be thrilled to witness an upset today just like yesterday when Deccan Chargers, the lowest team this summer in the lucrative league knocked out http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rajasthan-c837 Royals out of the tournament after beating them by five wickets. Had Rajasthan
won that match they would have been just one win away from securing a place in the play-offs.
Pitch Report:
The pitch in Pune is an excellent T20I pitch, which will have enough juice in it to help the bowlers and give them a bit more pace, while the batsmen need to be patient as runs will come later when the moisture will dry out.
Captain’s Comments:
Kolkata Knight Riders: http://www.senore.com/Cricket/G-Gambhir-c1447: It's much more important game for us than it is for PWI. We have to finish in the top 2 and we want to get the 2 points from this game. We've not analysed the wicket properly in Eden to be honest but
we've won. It's never about 1 or 2 individuals; it's always about the team. If someone is hitting the ball well, he should win the games.
