IPL - 1st Match Kolkata Knight Riders Vs Royal Challengers Banglore Full Highlights
Now about the 1st match ,both teams are ready to take this wonderful challenge with leaders like Rahul Dravid. and Sourav Ganguly which has a team helped in India in big problems and saved it from defeat will be playing against each other on the domestic front but this is something completely new.
With players like Jacques Kallis ,Brendon McCullum and other international players in side it will be interesting how they will be reacting to this wonderful and unique challenge .
Team Combination:
Banglore ->With only 4 international players allowed in side,Banglore will be opting to keep Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Cameron White plus Anil Kumble not in side due to injury ,Banglore will be going with KP Appanna the local lad to take the spinning attack. Misbah will miss the first clash as he is just now busy in Pakistan Vs Bangladesh ODI Series going in Pakistan so the Possible Banglore Posible team will be :
1 Praveen Kumar, 2 Wasim Jaffer, 3 Jacques Kallis, 4 Rahul Dravid (capt), 5 Virat Kohli, 6 Cameron White, 7 B Akhil, 8 Mark Boucher (wk), 9 Zaheer Khan, 10 Ashley Noffke, 11 R Vinay Kumar
Kolkata -> Kolkata are without Butt and Umar Gul as both of them are in Pakistan for bangladesh Series and will be joining the team in later matches that means that Ganguly will open the inning for Kolkata giving explosive McCullum to come in after Ricky Ponting at No. 3. Shukla will assist Ishant Sharma and Ajit Agarkar and Murali Kartik - with Twenty20 experience in England - adds variety with his left-arm spin and handy lower-order batting. Chris Gayle has yet to arrive for the match and so his place in some doubt. So possible Team combination for Kolkata will be:
1 Chris Gayle, 2 Sourav Ganguly (capt), 3 Ricky Ponting, 4 Brendon McCullum (wk), 5 David Hussey, 6 Debabrata Das, 7 Laxmi Ratan Shukla, 8 Ajit Agarkar, 9 Murali Kartik, 10 Ishant Sharma, 11 Ashok Dinda.
