IPL 9, Match 55: KKR v SRH Live social feeds

Kolkata Knight Riders will play the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the first match of the last day of the league matches. This is the last league game for both the teams and a must win for KKR. They have 14 points and only a win would get them the required points to be in contention for the playoffs. Sunrisers have a formidable and really settled squad. The batting though revolves around the in-from David Warner but they wouldn’t mind that since the Aussie has been at his consistent best right from the start of the tournament. KKR would love the fact that they are playing at home and their spinners will have a qualitative say in the proceedings of the game.

The Gujarat Lions host the Mumbai Indians in the match no. 54 of IPL 9.

The match will be played on the green Green Park wicket at Kanpur. The track that was used for the DD v SRH match was as green as it could be and really assisted the pacers, both the teams will take that into account and looking at the squads Mumbai’s pace battery will certainly enjoy bowling on that wicket.

IPL 9, Match 53: RPS v KXIP Live social feeds

With the IPL 9 match no. 53 the Rising Pune Supergiants conclude their poor IPL 2016 journey where they have failed to advance into the playoffs despite having MS Dhoni as the skipper. They will host the Kings XI Punjab at Vizag and will hope to salvage pride with a win in their final encounter. Kings who also had a really poor season would want to end it on a high. Dhoni vs Vijay contest will be interesting since the latter has played under and enjoyed a lot of success playing for CSK. The wicket at Vizag has been little predictable and both the teams would want to win the toss and bowl first to give them the best chance to win the game.

IPL 9, Match 52: DD v SRH Live social feeds

In match no. 52 of IPL 9 the Delhi Daredevils host Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Cricket Stadium in Raipur. This is the first game that the city is set to host and little is known about how the pitch will behave though it is expected to help the batters. It’s a must win game for the Daredevils whereas a win here will give the Sunrisers a cushion of sealing a top 2 position and guaranteeing themselves two goes at qualification for the final. SRH have a settled lineup. Brinder Sran will replace injured Ashish Nehra while the other ten will remain the same. We are not sure of the squad DD will go in this game with, they have made way too many changes and that has resulted in an inconsistent run. From here, advantage SRH but do or die situations are known to enhance performance. Will it for DD? Let’s wait and see.

IPL 9, Match 51: GL v KKR Live social feeds

In IPL 9, match number 51, the Gujarat Lions host the Kolkata Knight Riders at the Green Park in Kanpur, their second home ground. Both the teams come into this game, desperately looking for a win as they sit on 14 points. A win would though not guarantee them a playoffs berth but will keep them in contention since the final call would be taken depending on the Net Run Rate. Gujarat will be happy with the comeback of skipper Suresh Raina he hadn’t been there and they suffered a thrashing. KKR on the other hand were also beaten in their previous encounter and would definitely want to return with a win. The team combinations will also remain the same for GL Raina comes in for Akshdeep Nath while Kolkata would have to switch Jason Holder for injured Andre Russell.

IPL 9, Match 50: RCB v KXIP Live social feeds

The Royal Challengers Bangalore host Kings XI Punjab in match no. 50 of IPL 9 at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. This is a must win encounter for RCB who are stuck at 12 points and need to win both their coming games to get the required points and to qualify for the semis. Kings XI on the other hand are down and out of contention and would like to play party poppers for the home team. Royal Challengers don’t just have the opposition to fight against but also rain. There is a heavy thundershower in Bangalore and if it persists the game might well be washed off in that case both the teams will have to settle with 1 point each.

IPL 9, Match 48: KKR v RCB Live social feeds

Kolkata Knight Riders host the Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata for match no. 48 of IPL 9. Both the teams come into this game with a good win in their previous match and will be high on confidence. It’s a must win equation for Bangalore whereas Kolkata just need one win to seal their playoffs berth. RCB have 10 points with three games to go while KKR have 14 in 11. Gautam Gambhir and his boys are a formidable side when playing at home but then the form Virat Kohli is carrying along with AB de Villiers they aren’t easy to be dealt with either. It will be an interesting contest to watch the RCB batsmen play the KKR spinners on a surface that suits them the best.

IPL 9, Match 47: MI v DD Live social feeds

Mumbai Indians meet the Delhi Daredevils in match no. 46 of IPL 9 at Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam. Mumbai haven’t really managed to get their act together in their second home ground, the pitch hasn’t suited their strength the pacers, the wicket has been on the slower side and more than their bowlers the batsmen have failed to adjust to it. Rohit Sharma & Co. are habitual of the ball coming onto the bat nicely and playing across the line and all over but that hasn’t been really possible here and that is the biggest reason for their defeat. Delhi just needs to keep it simple their bowlers are picking the wicket, and the young batsmen are getting the runs; be wary of changing the lineup and rest assured its DD’s game.

IPL 9, Match 46: KXIP v SRH Live social feeds

Kings XI Punjab host the Sunrisers Hyderabad at their home ground the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium in Mohali. For SRH the equation is simple win the match and they are into the playoffs. They have 14 points and another two is good enough for qualification. If this game was to be played a week ago many would have called it a straight forward win for Sunrisers but the Kings have now picked things up and under skipper Murali Vijay are managing to give their opponents tough time and steal spoiling wins; not to forget if KXIP win all their remaining games, and if permutations and combinations go going they might well be tied at 14 points with a few other teams and that might be the game of Net Run Rate. SRH wouldn’t want to underestimate Kings and Vijay would once again want to motivate his boys to go out there and give their best.
