As IPL 2021 progresses, the excitement of the matches is also increasing. While the face of some teams joining the knockout matches is getting clear, while some teams are still struggling to make it to the playoffs. Today the 45th match of the tournament is to be played between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Dubai.
nothing more than a victory for Punjab
The team of Punjab should come on the field and there is no excitement in the match, it cannot happen. Now that Punjab and Kolkata face each other, both the teams will be looking to register the win with the best. The match for Punjab is to be played in do or die situation, because if the match goes hand in hand, Punjab's dream of reaching the playoffs may be shattered. PBKS have played 11 matches so far and have won only four, while the team has lost in seven. Rahul and Co are at the sixth position in the points table, while KKR is already in the top-4 and would like to win this match and take a step forward towards the knockouts.
the middle order is annoying
The problem for Punjab is that the middle order of the team is continuously flopping. Aiden Markram has scored 26, 27, and 42 in the last three matches but he has not been able to convert the starts he got into big scores. Deepak Hooda has also scored just 157 runs in 11 matches. At the same time, Nicholas Pooran is going through the worst phase of his career at this time. In 9 innings of this season, he has scored just 70 runs with his bat at a very mediocre average of 7.78. Against KKR, the team can give a chance to Moises Henriques in place of Pooran and Shahrukh Khan can also be tried in the playing XI.
KKR is completely ready
KKR has done well this season so far. The team has won five matches out of 11 and the team's run rate is also very good as compared to other teams. The good thing for KKR in the last few matches has been that different match-winning players have come out for the team. Apart from Venkatesh Iyer, Rahul Tripathi, and Nitish Rana, Dinesh Karthik has also played well in the death overs when given a chance. However, Captain Morgan is still waiting for the big innings.
Their bowlers are also doing a good job for Kolkata. Varun Chakraborty has taken 11 wickets in 11 matches and Lockie Ferguson has taken 7 wickets in four matches. If the Punjab Kings batsmen want to win the match, then the bowlers of KKR will have to break it.
These records can be made in the match
Dinesh Karthik will complete his 4000 runs in IPL with 16 runs in this match. Karthik will be the 8th player from India and 11th in the world to achieve this feat.
Oen Morgan will complete 1000 IPL runs for KKR with 31 runs in the match.
If KL Rahul manages to hit two sixes against KKR, he will be the first player to hit 100 sixes for PBKS.
If Chris Gayle is successful in scoring 35 runs in the match, then he will complete the figure of 5000 runs in the IPL.
