The most interesting part about IPL every year is the shuffling of points table. Since we are too much into the infant stage of IPL 2016, nothing much has changed till now. Gujarat Lions still top the table with three wins from three matches. Kolkata Knight Riders have grabbed two wins from three matches. They stand on second position. Thanks to a good net run rate, Royal Challengers Bangalore stay on third position inspite of one match and one win. Time for a double header today in IPL schedule. Watch Rising Pune Supergiants in search of a win against Kings XI Punjab. The other match for the day is between the mighty RCB against the Delhi Daredevils. Watch live streaming and score on HotStar. Live telecast available on Sony Six, Sony Max and Sony ESPN HD with live Hindi, English, Tamil, Bengali and Telugu commentary.
Rising Pune Supergiants were expected to be a strong team. Look at their batting line up - Ajinkya Rahane, Faf du Plessis, Kevin Pietersen, Steven Smith, MS Dhoni - looks unbeatable and never ending. So much of experience and fearless campaigners out there. Bowling line up is decent with Ashwin, Mithcell Marsh, Rajat Bhatia, Ishwar Pandey, Albie Morkel, Thisara Perera and many more!
They defeated Mumbai Indians in the IPL opener and faced a loss against Gujarat Lions. They would definitely want to win today and climb up the points table.
Kings XI Punjab seems to have carry forwarded the disappointing form from last year. They finished in the bottom few of points tally last year and nothing seems to have changed till now. Although we are in the early stages of the league, its always good to get back to the winnings ways as soon as possible. And the team would be well aware of this fact. The team heavily relies on the likes of Miller and Maxwell. They haven't clicked yet. If Shaun Marsh, Miller, Murali Vijay, Maxwell, etc get going, the team would hunt some wins moving forward.
Royal Challengers Bangalore are always a 'team to beat'. What a batting line up they boast of with the presence of Chris Gayle, Shane Watson, Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers. The bowling line up may leak a bit of runs but they have good campaigners like Samuel Badree, Iqbal Abdulla, Varun Aaron, David Wiese, Parvez Rasool, Mandeep Singh, Yuzvendra Chahal, etc. A lot of options to select from.
Delhi Daredevils are considered to be one of the weakest teams in the IPL. They lost miserably against Kolkata Knight Riders. It was a pleasant sight to see them bounce back hard against Punjab. India's most successful IPL bowler Amit Mishra was at the top of his form when he clinched four wickets for hardly any runs. With players like Sanju Samson, Zaheer Khan, Imran Tahir, Pawan Negi. Duminy, Quinton de Kock, Nathan Coulter-Nile, etc this line up deserves many more wins!
So, enjoy your Sunday with two exciting matches lined up. We will be back with mroe match previews, news and reviews from the IPL 2016.
