Gautam Gambhir palyed a bizarre innings to post a winning total for KKR. He was magnificent in his knock of 93 of 51 deliveries. He was dropped twice which Cost RCB too much. On the other side, he was helped well by first McCullum and then Kalliswho went on over RCB bowlers to insure Kolkata a good total.
Meanwhile it was opposite when Kolkata came to bat, none of the RCB batsman drafted their innings well. They were in verse of losing way before, costanly lossing their wickets. It was again Gayle who stuck some big shots but it was all late innings show when there was non chance of win.

I think it was Gabhir vs RCB and later Gayle as mock to KKR. As it say RCB had dependednt fully on Gayle and they didn't mean for doing them selv they are too much dependent on him and that is root cause of loss. many of the batamne need to remove say dilshan not perfroming must go out.

This match was a must win for KKR, Gautam Gambhir played exceptionally well to take KKR to a score of 190.
But in reply even though Chris Gayle 86 couldn't save RCB from losing the match ...

You are right It was one man game Gambir, Gautam Gambhir go like fire and was strom for the RCB bolwers, they have nothing to stop him.Also it right about the dropped cataches. Also Gautam Gambhir made Royal Challengers Bangalore pay for dropping him twice. He was well supported by McCullum and Jacques Kallis. Thanks to both that they strikes when KKR needed. It was Gambhir who was going well but McCullum gave a slow start, as he was was on 11 off 20 balls after six overs. He then started attacking his country counter part. kallis was as usuasl in his own style go on well supported his captain to end. It was unforntunate that Gambhir didn't able to hit century. Gambhir failed to score a boundary off six balls, before holing out to long-off in the 19th over, when he had a real chance of scoring a maiden IPL century .
Oh one thing is to mentione is the words bewtween gambhir and de vilers . he, gambhir exchanged words with de Villiersand that was more a strenth as it remind me of Yuvraj as he was charged by Flintoof then he go for 6 ball 6 sixes.
In reply to chase Royal Challengers' struggle for runs lossing wickets at every moments. Knight Riders' bowlers were brilliant during the defence, as they strikes regular. Yusuf Pathan, who has struggled for form with bat and ball, bowled an economical opening spell, during which he dismissed Tillakaratne Dilshan. While it was Kallis who ripped of Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers in concesssions.
It was a good tatics from KKR over Chris Gayle, by keeping him off strike at beginning. Gayle batting until the 20th tomscore 86 off 58 and became highest run getter for this season IPL. He strikes 6 sixes but all after no hope of winnings.

Yeah It was one man game Gambir but Gayle played well but it was not enough for him to make the work out though he played good in the end which he may or say must have done at tht top. While other batasmen of RCB are just for show case no of them had perfromed well except devilers in two match RCB is fully on the Gayle. Kholi is not doing his job well. Even Vettori retuen not help RCB to stop the Bizare from Gautam gamghir. Tillakaratne Dilshan is out of form and must be removed.

Gautam Gambhir had a excellent innings with KKR. He proved that he can become a perfect volcano, which would burst out and bring the fire in the ground. The ground was fully charged. The crowed was very excited and this helped gautam to have the confidence and go for the best shots which he knows and his placement for both sixes and fours was excellent. They was beyond the limit of an fielder.
Finally he turned out a match winner

You have taken a great piece of example to show ability fo gambhir. offcurse he can brust like valcano but he need to be more careful now as in th innings that he struck a great total je was dropped twice and that cost them thus Gambhir have ot be little care full about this as mnay time you will not goignt o ge th chance slike that. I wish if he had hamered another brilliant century and his first in the ipl.
He is good player with varties if shots and he not only place the balls and play in the gaps but also hit powerful sixes and make sure that they won. he is match winner for INDIA and rthat why he had ben choose to KRR for such huge amount of money.

As you said it was a fine innings from gambir. He played really well and he really deserved a century. It all seems to be that was the day of gambir. He was able to take the wicket of dangerous dilshan in the first over by using yousuf pathan. RCB was loosing wickets quickly and with i first 6 overs of RCB batting the result was almost known. But only doubt was about the man standing in the middle- gayle. He played a fine innings but it never helped RCB to reach the target. Gayle is now the top run taker of this IPL season and he is the current orange cap holder.

No doubt that Gmabhir played with his optentail what he is capable of he is more than what we see yesterday he can do more even get century in the ipl which he missed yesterday i hope he may get one in this IPL itself. Yes poor quality of batting from RCB and they have no one except gayle pefroming for them.
Gayle start off but it was too late he need be be fast and must have done earlier. many of the RCB team member need to getr revised them self they are not there to comes and go.
