Cheers..

Why did Mohit Sharma got the PoTM award?

In my opinion, whoever is in the selection panel, they are not doing a fair job.

By the way, I did not pick Shubman Gill for PoTM. My complaint has nothing to do with my points.

Cheers..

In srh vs lsg ( lsg won)

potm is Krunal Pandya from winning team lsg .

Krunal - 3/18 , runs -34(23)

But in srh vs pbks , srh won .

srh bowler Mayank markande took 4 wkts with 3.75 economy n he along with jonsen(2wkts)broke d back bone of pbks batting line up .


Dhawan scored 99 .

Mayank d bowler from winning team srh deserves it but potm given to Dhawan d batsmen from losing team pbks .

now in pbks vs gt also , gt won

Gill deserves it from wining team but given to mohit (2wkts).


So it’s not like giving to bowlers d potm .

Mohit gave only 14 runs in 4 overs

that's big for T20 match

plus he took important wickets...

This was batter's pitch..still he took 2 wickets while other experiences bowlers could not

so needs to appreciate his efforts 😊

Today's Match details--

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Sunrisers Hyderabad, 19th Match

Venue: Eden Gardens, Kolkata

----

What to expect: The one game in Kolkata so far was all about RCB's capitulation against spin. However, the surface is perhaps the best-suited one for pace in the country, particularly in the first half, and even the spinners have been known to hurry the batsmen. Expect a high-scoring encounter, barring a googly-collapse like last time.

Head-to-head: KKR dominate the head-to-head with 15 wins and 8 losses overall against the Sunrisers, and even more so at the Eden with 6 wins and just 2 losses! In fact SRH have won only one game at the Eden against KKR since 2020.

Kolkata Knight Riders

Tactics and match-ups: Andre Russell has failed to fire in this tournament, and KKR desperately need him to do so. Perhaps this is his moment -- since 2019, he averages 58 against KKR, scoring at a strike-rate of 181. In fact, his numbers against Bhuvneshwar Kumar, the leader of the bowling line-up, reads 63 off 31 balls, with a strike-rate north of 200 and just one dismissal. It's time for Andre Russell to come to the party. The force of mathematics certainly favours him.

Probable XI: Jason Roy, N Jagadeesan (w), Venkatesh Iyer, Nitish Rana (c), Andre Russell, Rinku Singh, Shardul Thakur, Sunil Narine, Lockie Ferguson, Umesh Yadav, Varun Chakravarthy

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Tactics and match-ups: The Sunrisers are likely to go in with the same XI, and persist with Harry Brook despite his run of low scores, especially with the faster surface in Kolkata. They're also likely to sub in Abdul Samad for the finishing role. Rahul Tripathi averages 34.88 against the Sunrisers striking at 163, and over 46 against KKR at Eden Gardens striking at 175. Expect him to take over from where he left off in the last game. Mayank Agarwal, however, has struggled against spin since 2019, averaging 14.88 against leg-break, including 16 dismissals in 27 innings.

Probable XI: Mayank Agarwal, Harry Brook, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram (c), Heinrich Klaasen(w), Abdul Samad, Washington Sundar, Mayank Markande, Marco Jansen, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Umran Malik
