Kolkata Knight Riders vs Mumbai Indians 56th IPL 2010 Match at Eden Gardens, Kolkata
On Apr 19th, 2010 20:00 IST | 14:30 GMT Onwards
In a must-win game for them, Kolkata Knight Riders take on Mumbai Indians on Monday at the Eden Gardens. Kolkata has done a huge favour by convincingly beating Rajasthan Royals in their previous game and courtesy that are still alive in the competition, though only by a minuscule chance.
Kolkata’s batting was also pretty good in the last game. Led from the front by Ganguly, the side reached the total of 133 with four overs to spare. What they would be looking forward to is some rollicking batting by Chris Gayle and Brendon McCullum, two magnificent players who have been short of runs this IPL.
Orange cap holder Sachin Tendulkar has been in sublime touch with runs flowing from his blade consistently. He has been well supported by the likes of Saurabh Tiwary, Ambati Rayudu, Kireon Pollard and Dwayne Bravo. One of the major strengths of this side has been that one of the players has always stood to the occasion whenever his team has asked for.
Another very important reason for Mumbai’s success has been their bowling. The bowling has clicked well as a unit and the likes of Lasith Malinga, Harbhajan Singh, Ryan Mclaren, all-rounder Kireon Pollard and Dwayne Bravo have given nothing away to the opposition.Though Mumbai have nothing to lose or gain from the game, they will still want to go in the semis with a win at the back of their minds.
