Players to Watch….
Tim Paine
Australian Wicket-Keeper batsmen who can give a aggressive start for the team but he couldn’t get a correct rhythm in his first match but he will get today.
Amit Singh
A right-arm medium-pacer for Gujarat came into prominence when he was signed on by the Rajasthan Royals for the second edition of the IPL in South Africa
Trivia
Ø Yuvraj Singh has struck 13 sixes so far this IPL, the highest by a batsman this season.
Ø Siddharth Trivedi, despite improved performances in the last two games, still has the dubious distinction of conceding the most runs in an innings this IPL - 59 in four overs against Kings XI Punjab.
Mic Testing 1...2...3...
Shane Warne - "We have been lucky here. We know a few things about this ground like the angles to be blocked off and that gives us the extra confidence."
Yuvraj Singh - “We have to win six out of six to have a chance,”
Pitch Conditions
Ø Not easy to field under the lights.
Ø Chasing is the best one.
