Kings XI Punjab playing against Kolkata Knight Riders today. The game is scheduled to begin at Dubai on 8:00 local time.KXIP is playing as the favorites while Kolkata Knight Riders is very much confident by defending a small total infront of great batting line up team RCB.
KKR has got the best bowling attack than KXIP, such that there is a great chance of losing Maxwell wicket early in the game. It is also quite interesting to see Maxwell playing against most dangerous bowler in the T20 format Sunil Narine. If you see Sunil Narine's average in this format of cricket you will be amazed as he has taken one wicket in every 10 balls he has bowled!! This clearly shows that, KKR has the ability to actually avoid KXIP to build parnerships. If KXIP is lose Maxwell and Miller's wicket early then there are players who are out of form.
On the other hand, if Goutham Gambhir would be able to score more than 30 runs then KKR should be able to clinch the victory in this game as there are many hard hitters like Uthappa, Panday and Pathan who can accelerate the runrate in the slog overs.
For this reason KKR cannot be considered as underdogs infront of KXIP and also there is a great odd of losing early wickets as both the openers in KXIP are not in form.
