Kolkata Knight Riders.
Team News:The Knight riders are still grappling with issues over their batting line-up. Though they managed to secure a much-needed victoryin their last game against the Kings XI Punjab, there are still questions over the form of top-order batsmen, particularlythat of Yusuf Pathan and Manoj Tiwary. Manvinder Bisla's unbeaten half-centuryin the last game though, was encouraging and Jacques Kallis showed glimpses of return to form too, but his low strike rate needs some improvement. Eoin Morgan struck some mighty blows in the last game en-route to his 26-ball 42 and has been in good touc.tough situations and seem more threatening and confident when out on the field with the ball in hand.Sunil Narine has been among the top three wicket takers in the IPL regularly and most opposition players seem content to see him off rather than attack him. L. Balaji and Rajat Bhatia have been decent in the opening and death overs respectively, but each of them could definitely pick their game up a step further. KKR could also do well to lift their fielding standards and maintain their intensityfor the entire twenty overs while they are out fielding.
