Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders are sitting on the edge of the Indian Premier League (IPL) abyss with three matches remaining and wins required in all of them if they are any chance of reaching the finals.

It will be an interesting fixture as the two sides will struggle. Both the sides will play in a must win situation and they will come out with strategies so makes it evenly poised match.

Both the Chennai Super Kings and the Kolkata Knight Riders are pushing hard to sneak into the final four and neither can afford to lose this match up at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. This ground traditionally serves up run fests and just ten days ago Chennai smashed 246 here against Rajasthan, who hit 223 in a bold but ultimately futile chase.

It seems this game between Kolkata Knight Riders vs Chennai Super Kings will be airing today at 16:30 – 21:00 (CET).

Super Kings will come having lost against Deccan Chargers but they will be glad to take on the Knight Riders at their home. Their middle order batting and below par bowling from local bowlers and mediocre fielding have been concern for team management. Hayden hasn’t really shown his excellence in the tournament so far and with pressure to win all matches I will be wondering how he performs.

The KKRs are in no better situation. They look formidable on paper but they fumble on the pitch. The top order has been inconsistent to say the least and so is their bowling. Ishant Sharma looks like he lost all fire and he will give way to Bond for the Chennai match and so will Mendis give way for Murali Kartik.

Chennai Super Kings: Vijay, Hayden, Raina, Dhoni (c), Morkel, Badrinath, Ashwin, Bollinger, Muralitharan, Jakati, Tyagi.

Kolkata Knight Riders: Gayle, Ganguly (c), McCullum, Tiwary, Mathews, Saha, Pujara, Agarkar, Kartik, Dinda, Bond.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Deccan Chargers Live : You can Watch the Live Match of IPL3 2010 T20 Match 3 0  Today Kolkata Knight Riders vs Deccan Chargers Live Updates.Watchfor DC vs KKR LIVE on Youtube here stay with us…..

The 30th  match between Kolkata Knight Riders vs Deccan Chargers Live Streaming will be played on 31st March 2010 at Eden Garden, Kolkata

Pitch :Would be on the slower side. Teams who win the toss would like to bat first. Any target above 160 is hard to chase on this slow track. So bat first and score in excess of 160 would be the strategy of both the teams.

Stats

KKR: It would be all over for them if they do not win this one. If they lose this one then they have to win all the next 6 games. Though they have some big names in the team but they are not playing as a team. Bond and Gayle are not in great form and that’s what hurt them most. Bowling is weak, so as the batting. Its a do or die situation for them. The only good thing for them is that they have won the 1st game against the same team of this season.

DC: Should have been in the top 4 at the moment with the quality of players they have. But better late then never. They still have the chance to make it into the semis but have to pull up their socks now. The way they played against MI would have definitely demoralise the team spirit. But then they have to play against one of the weakest team of the IPL & on current form they look the favorites to win the contest.

Last 5 matches losing and winning streak:

DC: L,L,W,W,W
KKR: L,W,L,L,L

Players to watch out for

Chris Gayle: Have to play the innings of his IPL career. KKR have lots of expectations from him since the time he landed in India. Apart from his one innings against MI, he has been a failure. Have to play till 15th over. His off spins are vital in middle overs and this would help the team to add an extra batsman in the team.

Shane Bond: The costliest player after Kevin Pollard haven’t done any justice to his price tag. Has an ordinary IPL season so far. He and Sharma have been thrashed all over the park by almost every team. Needs to get early wickets especially of Gilly, Gibbs and Symonds.

Andrew Symonds: Have been in great form in this season. He has been the most destructive player for the Chargers so far. A perfect all rounder for his team. His only problem is his over aggression which leads to his dismissal number of times. DC would be banking heavily on his performance.

Gibbs: Hardly played any significant knock in this IPL. If he doesn’t play well then there would be a chance of dropping him in the next match. Its a good time to get back into his rhythm as KKR do not have any bowler who looks like taking wickets except Murli Kartik. One good innings from him would make the Chargers one of the top 4 teams of the current IPL.

Battles to watch out for:

Bond vs Gilly
Ishant vs Symonds
Gayle vs Vaas
Hussey vs Ojha

Squad

KKR – Sourav Ganguly(C),Ajit Agarkar , Ashok Ali , Ashok Dinda, Chirag Pathak, Cheteshwar Pujara, Eklakh Ahmed, Ganapathi Vignesh, H.Khadiwal,e Iqbal Abdulla, Ishant Sharma, Laxmi Ratan Shukla, Manoj Tiwary, Murali Karthik, Rohan Gavaskar, S.

Bangalore vs Kolkata match

Bangalore and Kolkata bothe teams plays 10 matches, 5 wins and 5 losses. This match is most importen for both teams. Both teams have a chance of making  the  semifinals.

Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Anil Kumble’s decision is likely to be dictated by the pitch. If it is good pitch for spinners will get the maximum benefits, then Kumble and the Bangalore think-tank might well opt for four foreign batsmen with the bowling being manned by the Indian recruits.

Ross Taylor failed in the last match, but he is likely to be retained, because he like Uthappa, can change the course of the match in an over.

The best news for Kolkata,  is that Sourav Ganguly is fit and ready to play in the match. While a few matches ago, Ganguly being fit wouldn’t have made that much of a difference, he has been in superb touch in the past few matches,

Royal Challengers Bangalore:

A Kumble*, B Akhil, KP Appanna, MV Boucher†, R Dravid, D du Preez, SP Goswami†, JH Kallis, V Kohli, B Kumar, P Kumar, A Mithun, EJG Morgan, MK Pandey, KP Pietersen, SPD Smith, S Sriram, DW Steyn, LRPL Taylor, RV Uthappa, RE van der Merwe, R Vinay Kumar, CL White

Kolkata Knight Riders squad

Tendulkar vs Sourav Ganguly Live Today’s IPL Match

Pitch Expectations: Dry wicket, help for spinners in the middle over. If batsmen applies themselves well then they could score easily on this surface. Win the toss and bat first, as simple as you can get.

Peculiar Stats

Mumbai Indians (MI) : They are playing champions in the tournament, and finally they started clicking well without Tendulkar performance also. The bench strength has been tested and so far they also played upto their potential. It would be interesting to see what will be the final 11 for this particular match. A practice match for all key players before the semi finals or rest to all the key players? A great test of the Mumbai Indians team management.

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) : The hope and the chances for semi final birth is over with CSK’s win. The only team of IPL which couldn’t reach the semi finals in any of the season. For the crowd and spectators this would be another opportunity to see Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly bat in the same match, though against each other this time. KKR would be hoping to end the season on a winning note. Its bye bye time for league games.

Last 5 matches winning/losing streak

MI: W,W,W,L,L
KKR: W,L,L,W,L

Players to watch out for

KA Pollard: The big man from the Caribbean has joined the party and that too in a big way. In last 2 matches he has scored 65 runs off just 20 balls with the strike rate of 315.00 and 8 sixes + 2 fours. His dream run didn’t stop at batting only, he has taken 3 wickets in last match and gave only 15 runs in 4 overs against the Daredevils. Add 2 run outs to his name, he has seriously proved himself for the highest tag price. KKR bowlers would be worried against a player of this kind of form.

Abhishek Nayar: The local talent from Mumbai is fighting for the place against the local outsiders. Having played wonderful cricket in both the previous season, its becoming difficult for him to get a place in the team since he recovered from the injury. Will he get a chance in the semis would lot depend on his performance in this match.

Sourav Ganguly: Who would have expected Dada to the 3rd highest leading scorer of the IPL 2010 after the half stage? He has proven his worth again and played some crucial knocks for the team. His catching has been outstanding in the tournament. Though the same can’t be said of his captaincy of which he is the real master.

B McCullum: Another poor season for him. Barring his 1st knock against he RCB in 1st season of IPL, he has hardly played any innings of his standard. A low score here would get him the tag of flop player of the current season like Yuvraj got. But if he fires, it would be hard to stop him, as you can’t place a fielder behind the keeper where he plays he scoop shots pretty well.

Battles to watch out for:

Sachin vs Bond
Ganguly vs Zaheer
Pollard vs Gayle
Harbhajan vs Karthik

Squads

MI: SR Tendulkar(c), AN Ahmed, DJ Bravo, S Dhawan, JP Duminy, CRD Fernando, Harbhajan Singh, ST Jayasuriya, Z Khan, DS Kulkarni, R McLaren, C Madan, I Malhotra, SL Malinga, AG Murtaza, GR Napier, AM Nayar, KA Pollard, AT Rayudu, R Sathish, KS Sahabuddin, R Shukla, AP Tare(wk), SS Tiwary

KKR: Sourav Ganguly(C),Ajit Agarkar , Ashok Ali , Ashok Dinda, Chirag Pathak, Cheteshwar Pujara, Eklakh Ahmed, Ganapathi Vignesh, H.Khadiwal,e Iqbal Abdulla, Ishant Sharma, Laxmi Ratan Shukla, Manoj Tiwary, Murali Karthik, Rohan Gavaskar, S. Singh, V. Aaron, Wriddhiman Saha, Ajantha Mendis, Angelo Mathews, Brad Hodge, Brendon McCullum, Charl Langeveldt, Chris Gayle, David Hussey, Mashrafe Murtaza, Shane Bond.

Friday, March 12 , 20:00 (14:30 GMT)

Deccan Chargers vs Kolkata Knight Riders live :Kolkata have only six overseas players to choose from at the moment: Brad Hodge, Owais Shah, Ajantha Mendis, Angelo Mathews, Mashrafe Mortaza and Charl Langeveldt. The likes of Brendon McCullum, Chris Gayle, David Hussey and Shane Bond will join the squad only after their international commitments.

It’s likely that Mendis and Mortaza will be the ones to miss out on the opening game. Ajit Agarkar did not train on the eve of the match because of a calf strain and is likely to sit out as well. Kolkata signed up an Under-19 player, Mandeep Singh, 48 hours ago and he is reportedly in their scheme of things.

Deccan don’t have a choice regarding their overseas players for the first game. They have only four in the squad so Adam Gilchrist, Herschelle Gibbs, Andrew Symonds and Chaminda Vaas will play. It’s a bit of a concern since Gilchrist, Symonds and Vaas have been out of competitive cricket while Gibbs has been struggling for form with South Africa. They have a strong Indian contingent, though, with VVS Laxman and Rohit Sharma bolstering the batting, and RP Singh and Pragyan Ojha leading the bowling.

Indian Premier League 2010: Kings XI Punjab vs Kolkata Knight Riders at Chandigarh

Mar 27, 2010 (20:00 local, 02:30 GMT)

Kings XI Punjab and Kolkata Knight Riders are the bottom 2 teams of the IPL 2010 till now. Both teams have played 5 matches each out of which KKR has won 2 and KXIP has won 1. They are in a situation where they cant loose any more games if they want to reach through the semi-finals.

Kolkata has Chris Gayle back in squad and Punjab has Brett Lee back in squad. Neither Kolkata nor Punjab have performed well and this match will be a do or die for both of them. Catch the action of 23rd Match of the DLF IPL 2010

Watch Kings XI Punjab vs Kolkata Knight Riders IPL T20 live streaming here. PCA Stadium, Mohali will be hosting a match where Kings XI Punjab will be taking on Kolkata Knight Riders. Both the teams are at the table bottom and are hungry for consistency.

Mahela Jayawardene will not play tomorrow and Shaun Marsh will replace him. Both Irfan and Sreesanth also might be dropped for their inconsistency which means the bowling look weakened with Juan Theron and Piyush Chawla. Theron also has to come with impressive bowling.

With Chris Gayle and Shane Bond joining the Knight Riders may have hoped to do better but Bond has yet to come with a wicket taking innings and even Gayle with great contribution form his willow. He has made 75 runs in his return match but he needs to bat to take his team a win like how Sachin did or Kallis did. Owais Shah and Ganguly too haven’t had great outing so far.

The Kolkata Knight Riders have lost previous 2 matches and the Kings XI have to win one although they have lost close matches. I see KKR having brighter chance as against the Kings XI Punjab. Watch
