This is 44th Match of DLF IPL. The match is between Rajasthan Royals vs Kolkata Knight Riders. The last time when both these teams locked horns, Rajasthan got the better of the Knightriders by posting a daunting total. Ganguly and Hussey got together in a crucial partnership but both of them didn’t last long to see their side to a win. Royals registered a comprehensive win. This is a golden opportunity for the KnightRiders to avenge their last defeat.

Latest news is that Shoaib Akhtar is down with a knee injury and he might miss the game today. This would be a big loss for Knight Riders then and in that case, we might see Umar Gul coming in to replace him.
