Hi friends, Daniel Vettori returns to RCB as a captain in the clash between RCB vs KKR.It is expected to be a high voltage match as both teams are in similar position. Both teams will be desperate to win this match.Royal Challengers Bangalore are clearly the favorites for this game.Kolkata need play out of their skin to win the match.The pitch at Kolkata is offering some assistance for spin.I expect it to be a low scoring game.Whatever it is,expecting a high voltage thriller from the two teams.Who is your favorite?

KKR won the match even though Chris Gayle made 86 for RCB. Gautam Gambhir played well for his 93 which ensured a good total of 190 which ensured the victory. It was a good win for KKR ...

Hi Arun, Absolutely,it was a great win for Kolkata Knight Riders.They dominated Bangalore in all the three departments.Bowling was the key for both the teams.Bangalore did not bowl well except Vettori who bowled some decent overs.Other bowlers including Zaheer was too expensive.While on the other hand,Kolkata bowled very well.Their batting was terrific led by Gambhir in front.Chris did not have partners at the other end so he could not strike with full freedom.Hope Bangalore come out with strong performances in their next games.

As we seen, a 47 run victory for KKR. As throughout this IPL, Gayle had a slow start! He began the onslaught too late. Daniel Vettori leading by example again today giving just 29 off his 4 overs. Not good enough for RCB though. As you spotted, assistance for spin was the key. Vettori bowled well and Narine gave 11 off his 4 overs.

Hi Dwayne, Gayle did not strike early because there was no one to accompany him.RCB lost away the game when Villiers and Dilshan were dismissed without much damage.KKR bowlers bowled very well.They kept on changing their pace.Narine was absolutely fantastic.Bangalore bowling was good enough.There is no change in their pace except from Vettori.They were not good in line and length.Gayle was helpless as he was losing out partners at the other end.Hope Bangalore come out with good performance in their next game.

By batting first, KKR had put a huge target of 191 for RCB. It was a brilliant batting performance by gambir, mccullun and kalling. I think they got there team coordination right. Any way it will be interesting to see how RCB reply back as they have huge batting line up with gayle, dilshan, kohli AB devillers etc.

Hi Rock, KKR posted a huge total of 190 with the help of Gambhir who scored a fabulous 93.The captain led the team from front with his fantastic innings.Mccullum and Kallis gave company to Gambhir and laid a good platform for the team to post a huge score.RCB was struck by early blows.Dilshan and Villiers were dismissed without any damage.Gayle stood alone and there was no batsman to accompany him.His late strikes were not enough for RCB since KKR posted a huge total of 190.RCB are too much dependent on their overseas batsmen and they need to improve their bowling.
