After KKR's victory over demoralized Kings XI, there's buzz around whether in this IPL too there will be emergence of an underdog and who go on to reach the pinnacle ? The star of the evening was Tiwari, as he ended up taking all three prizes in the evening Man of the match, Karbonn Kamal Catch and DLF maximum. Feel sorry for him to miss the bus for upcoming T20 world cup.
The bottom-line of the evening was that KKR looks to be pretty decent side on the field too. They have great variety in bowling and now with the inclusion of Chris Gayle and David Hussey in the line up the team looks very much stronger. On top of that their captain Saurav Ganguly got sufficient runs next to his name.
Before today's game, the team was virtually written off after their three consecutive losses. Will today's evening performance will be U-turn in the fortunes of most talked about and controversial team of the league.
If you go by the short history of the league, in the first edition Rajasthan Royals who initially criticized to be following a 'low cost model' went on to win the inaugural trophy. In the second season the bottom performer of the season-one i.e. Deccan Chargers emerged as champions. So Does IPL 3.0 belongs to KKR who finished last in IPL 2.0 ? Let's wait and watch as their unofficial star player Bredon McCullun is bound to join the line-up next week. He will be very much charged up to give a thumping reply to his criticism in season-two.
New-jersey, New Coach can make a lot of difference !
