In the first qualifier of 2012 Indian Premier League - IPL5, top 2 teams Delhi Daredevils and Kolkata Knight Riders will meet in the night game on Tuesday, 22nd May, 2012 at Subrata Roy Sahara Stadium, Pune, and the timing will be 14:30 GMT, 8:00 PM IST.
Both teams played really good cricket this season and they won 1 away match against each other so it is tough to decide which team has upper hand.
Delhi has strong batting line of with in form Sehwag who scored 484 runs so far and David Warner who laready made impact in few games with a century while Ross Taylor also back in form and Jayawardhane is steady as usual. They should play with extra spinner considering the slowness of the pitch.
Kolkata has mainly reached here because of captain Gautam Gambhir who hit 6 ha;f centuries so far. McCullum is also contributing well but they need Yusuf Pathan to fire. They will go with the same team with 3 spinners Narine who is almost unplyable this season with Shakib Al Hasan and Iqbal Abdullah.
