02-Oct-2014 - CL T20 - Kolkata Knight Riders v Hobart Hurricanes

Semi-Final# 1 of CL T20 kicks off with Kolkata v Hobart.

 

There are many similarities between these teams. Both teams have problem areas in their batting line up to address. Both the teams expect their best spinner to spearhead the attack [Narine and Doherty]. Both teams have an important batsman coming back to form [Pandey for KKR and Malik for Hobart].

Hobart have posted their highest score in this tournament [186 in 19 overs while chasing 185], against Cobras in this venue [Uppal Stadium]. But KKR have won 4 out of 4 matches here. They have stopped their 3 oppositions to exactly 151. Even the powerful Chennai Super Kings line-up could only get 157 against them.

Gambhir, Kallis and Ten doeschate are out of form. Yusuf Pathan hasn't got many chances to showcase his form. This is the only worry KKR have. Already Uthappa and Pandey in good form, if any one of these 3 batsmen make a good score, it's bad news for Hobart.
