ESPNcricinfo IPL Fantasy League guide: Kolkata Knight Riders vs. Mumbai Indians
Kolkata Knight Riders are all set to take on the Mumbai Indians in the latest match of Indian Premiere League (IPL) tonight, i.e. Wednesday, April 24.
Both the teams have been struggling for consistency in the season so far, grabbing a number of convincing victories, as well as tasting some bitter defeats.
As the latest season of IPL is yet to reach its halfway stage there is ample time for both the teams to look into their weaknesses and work on them to make themselves a formidable force to be reckoned with.
Both the teams have a number of players that have played a vital role in taking them home on a number of occasions.
For the Knight Riders, skipper Gautam Gambhir has lead from the front, scoring plenty of runs in nearly all matches. However, he has failed to get sufficient support from his opening partner. Jacques Kallis has been handy with both the bat and the ball, though he has failed to perform consistently. Eoin Morgan has been a good batsman to have in the middle-order, while Sunil Narine has bowled magically, something that is hardly a surprise.
For the Mumbai Indians, the openers Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Pointing have been a disappointment so far, but Rohit Sharma and Dinesh Karthik have been a real treat, playing some exceptional innings. Kieren Pollard has made useful contributions as well, where bowlers Lasith Malinga and Mitchell Johnson have used pace to keep the opposition quiet.
The IPL Fantasy League enthusiast has a wonderful opportunity to earn plenty of points today.
Taking the pitch into account, Gambhir and Kallis should definitely be in your team. Both the players have made their form obvious and are capable of earning big scores on a pitch that can be regarded as difficult to bat on. You can leave out Gambhir to put Morgan in your team as well, as he is adept at playing spin.
Sharma, Karthik and Pollard are three of the best picks from the Mumbai Indian side, as all three of them are bound to contribute significantly.
As for the bowlers, make sure you go into today?s match with Narine. He is an absolute must for today?s encounter. Malinga and Johnson would be a good option as well, though they should not replace the Kolkata Knight Riders magician.
