    We will be bowling first. Just because of the weather, it was bright when we came and we thought we should bat when we came here. But that has changed now. I'm pretty happy with where we are, 7 games are done, 7 more to come, we need to play well and qualify for the playoffs.

    How GT are going?

    There is a change of trend a bit for GT. Gujarat are well renowed to be a chasing team but have won the previous two games while defending. One of them was a low-scoring affair against LSG, while the recent win came in a batting paradise at home against MI.

  • 2:19 PM (IST) Posted by Varun Malik

    How KKR are going?

    In short - Inconsistent.

    They are undergoing see-saw ride with a few wins in the season so far. They were not stable with their openers but the arrival of Jason Roy at the top will boost their chances and they would send him on top for the rest part. Their middle order - Rana, Rinku and Venkatesh has contributed but Russell's bat is yet to do talking in this season. Will Russell stand on his 35th Birthday today? Meanwhile, KKR's fast bowling is underperforming and the star duo of Varun Chakravarthy and Suyash Sharma have led their bowling attack with Narine not getting wickets frequently.
