IPL 9, Match 25: RPS v GL Live social feeds

The Rising Pune Supergiants host the Gujarat Lions in IPL 9 match no. 25 at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. Despite the fact that both the teams won the last game that they played; Lions certainly will have an upper hand over the Supergiants having already beaten them the first time the two teams met. MS Dhoni and RPS still have selection questions to answer with injury to their two key batsmen and no replacement to have arrived with the team. Suresh Raina will probably go in with the same XI and depend on his top heavy batting to deal with the weak Pune bowling and take them through.

IPL 9, Match 24: MI v KKR Live social feeds

The highly consistent Kolkata Knight Riders take on the shaky Mumbai Indians side at the Wankhede Stadium today. KKR are coming into the game after winning a final over thriller against RPSG while MI has lost their past two encounters. However, both teams have worrying factors to ponder upon. KKR’s most reliable part, their opening pair of Gautam Gambhir and Robin Uthappa, has suddenly gone off-colors. But the middle order has taken responsibility wonderfully. Mumbai Indians, on the other hands, have struggled with team combination. Both teams will rely on their bowling attack to win games for them to win the game. It would be interesting to see which one of the fares well, the spin heavy KKR bowling line up of the pace dominated MI attack. In spite of having a very poor head to head record against MI (12 defeats to 5 wins), KKR go into the contest as the favourites.

IPL 9, Match 23: DD v GL Live social feeds

In IPL 9, match number 23 a confident looking Delhi Daredevils will host the strong men from Gujarat at their home ground the Feroz Shah Kotla in New Delhi. Both the teams would want to win this one and put a firm foot in the top four spot in the points table. Delhi have been at their best in the last couple of games, with both their batting and bowling units striking form and combining well to perform as a unit. Gujarat Lions on the other hand were handed over a heavy defeat by the Sunrisers Hyderabad but came back strong to beat the Royal Challengers at home. The pitch at Kotla will assist the spinners and both the teams do have the tweakers in their squad, it will also be important to see who wins the toss and which team is going to bowl second.

IPL9, Match 22: SRH v RPS Live social feeds

In IPL 9, match 22 two teams with indifferent fates take on each other at the Rajiv Gandhi International stadium in Hyderabad. While Sunrisers Hyderabad lost their first two games in the league only to win three on a trot after that; the Rising Pune Supergiants who started their campaign with a victory have lost the winning momentum and are languishing towards the bottom of the table with just one win in five matches. MS Dhoni & Co. would now be desperate to change fortunes otherwise their hopes of advancing in the league will die down. SRH on the other hand will be quite pleased to meet a deserted opponent on their home ground which has sort of been their fortress in the season thus far.

IPL 9, Match 21: KXIP v MI Live social feeds

Mumbai Indians travel to Mohali to play the Kings XI Punjab in their den at the PCA Stadium. MI were beaten by the Delhi Daredevils in their last game in Delhi and would want to register the two important points on the table against a relatively weaker opponent in KIXP. The Kings from here probably don’t have much to lose, their focus now should be on putting in all they have to change the fortunes. The Big three Miller, Maxwell and Marsh have to fire for them to be in a position to challenge Rohit Sharma & Co. Will it be the obvious or the home team will finally come up with a performance that has been due for long.

IPL 9, Match 20: RPS v KKR Live social feeds

The Rising Pune Supergiants meet the Kolkata Knight Riders at the Maharashtra Cricket Association stadium in Pune in match number 20 of the IPL 9. MS Dhoni has a lot of things to figure out ahead of this game, since things are not really going their way. With KP’s injury he would want to bring in another all-rounder and add more bowling depth. KKR at the other end have most things sorted, their bowlers are getting them the wickets and the way the top order led by Gautam Gambhir is firing; they hardly have to worry about many things going into the game. KKR will have an edge if RPS don’t get their act together.

IPL 9, Match 19: GL v RCB Live social feeds

In match 19 of IPL 9 Gujarat Lions host the Royal Challengers Bangalore at their home ground in Rajkot. Gujarat were going great until they met the Sunrisers Hyderabad and tasted a 10-wicket defeat. RCB did most things right in the match at Pune against the Supergiants. Though Kohli lost the toss and were asked to bat first they put on a total beyond RPS’ reach and then came back strong as a bowling unit to seal the game. RCB have the momentum going into the game while Gujarat would want to get back to the winning ways and treat the loss as just one off days.

IPL 9, Match 18: SRH v KXIP Live social feeds

Sun finally rose for the Sunrisers Hyderabad as Shikhar Dhawan was among runs in the last match against the mighty Gujarat Lions. Dhawan’s half-century not only ensured they got over the line with 10 wickets in hand but also gave David Warner some relief that he was not the only one fighting a battle. Kings XI Punjab after beating RPS were dusted down by KKR and their problems still exist, it’s quite simple for them, for KXIP to win the trio of- Marsh, Maxwell and Miller has to fire. The three have been inconsistent and thus the fate of the team. SRH should have little problems this time, since they already have a lethal bowling attack and with both the openers coming good, it should be their night.

IPL 9, Match 17: DD v MI Live social feeds

In match number 17 of the IPL 9 Delhi Daredevils host the Mumbai Indians. DD are now playing with a new found zeal and have won back to back games and most things look sorted and working in their place. The bowlers are picking wickets, the top order is firing full cylinders and taking them through totals, skipper Zaheer Khan would be mighty pleased with the effort of his boys. Rohit Sharma on the other hand still has a few aspects to iron out. Though they got over the line in the last game powered by a Kieron Pollard special, they have to sort out the opening slot, early wickets never really help a team’s cause. At this point DD look really good at home while MI do have their chances, let's also wait for the toss to dictate its mandate.

IPL 9, Match 16: RPS v RCB Live social feeds

In the 16th match of the IPL 9 Rising Pune Supergiants host Rising Pune Supergiants at their home ground the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. It is one of the four matches that will be played at the stadium after a court order has forced the team to shift the games out of Maharashtra. While RPS are coming here after tasting an unlikely defeat to the hands of Kings XI Punjab, RCB will still feel the burnt having lost the match to Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium. Both the teams have a few questions to answer and a lot to work on with their team combinations, one of them will surely add two points to their tally, and it is more likely to be the team that wins the toss. Not to forget this is the MS Dhoni vs Virat Kohli tie.
