The Indian Premier
League (IPL) : Today the match begins with Kolkata Knight Riders clashing
with Pune Warriors at Eden Gardens, Kolkata. In this match special attention
for Sourav Ganguly is Playing his home ground, ironically as captain of the
away team. He is capable of rousing the passionate Eden Gardens crowd to
feverish levels; his iconic status in Kolkata is comparable to Sachin
Tendulkar's in Mumbai.
Pune Warriors :
Ganguly, and Warriors, need all the inspiration they can get. They are second
from bottom in the league, having lost six out of their previous seven games.
Ganguly struggling his last game against Mumbai Indians. He scored 16 off 24
balls. The stage is set for Ganguly's homecoming but fans will need to hope
that the weather stays clear.
Michael Clarke is new to the Warriors camp but he is
expected to turn things around for a struggling team. He looked comfortable in his
first two two games, but he will want to convert those starts. His class
against spin could be key to negotiating a tricky Knight Riders attack. Ryder
& Uthappa not in his good form. his batting lay down in every match. They
have to win this game' if they want to stay in this IPL 5.

Kolkata Knight Riders
: The home team has been in good form coming into this game - four wins in
a row - and they would aim to stay close to Delhi Daredevils at the top of the
table. Gautam Gambhir, the Knight Riders captain, has scored 365 runs with four
half-centuries, and he has done it at strike-rate of 143.70.
Kolkata's bowling attacked is best in this IPL. Their bowler
like Sunil Narine. Brett Lee, Bhatia, Yousuf bowled well in this IPL. Narinehas
taken 12 wickets and has an economy of 5.53, the second best after Lasith
Malinga. On the other hand' Yousuf Pathan not in his good form' hit 77 sixes in his IPL career. However, only
three of them have come this season.Mcculum is not playing well in kolkata.
Hope so it will be Interesting to see how this two teams react each-other.
