Match 26 IPL 2013 –Kolkata Knight Riders vs Chennai Super Kings
Date – Sat Apr 20
Time – 4:00 pm i.e 10:30 GMT | 16:00 IST
Venue – Eden Gardens, Kolkata

Today in the 26th match of IPL season 6, defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders will take on Chennai Super Kings at the Eden Garden. KKR who lost their last match against Punjab by just 4 runs would be going all guns blazing against CSK who are coming in this match with a comprehensive win against Delhi Daredevils.

Kolkata Knight Riders biggest challenge would be the form of Chennai batsmen. CSK players like Michael Hussey, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja can change the game within a matter of few overs and thus KKR needs to devise a game plan to curtail them.

As per IPL stats, out of 10 matches played so far, Chennai has won 6 and thus with 60 % win percentage, they are considered favorites but the form of Kolkata captain Gambhir can change be the real game changer. He has single handily took his team to victories and is the highest run getter for KKR so far in this season. Also with the inclusion of Brendon McCullum, KKR batting line up has boosted and thus this match is expected to be a high scoring game.
