IPL match preview:

Delhi Daredevils

IPL 2009 so far: Played – 6, Won – 4, Lost -2

Following a spate of poor performances, tonight’s match against the despondent Knight Riders is the Daredevils best chance of getting back to winning form. Virender Sehwag is set to return from injury, which means that, despite his splendid fifty, David Warner is likely to be in the dugouts allowing Daniel Vettori to strengthen the team’s bowling. Glenn McGrath’s continuous omission puzzles all.

Best Bet for Delhi Daredevils:

Virender Sehwag – 9/10
AB DeVillers – 8/10
Amit Mishra – 8/10
Ashish Nehra – 7/10
T Dilshan – 7/10

Kolkata Knight Riders

IPL 2009 so far: Played – 8, Won – 1, Lost -6, N/R – 1

The Knight Rider’s Indian Premier League campaign is at a crossroads. Just one more loss will end their hopes of reaching the semi-finals – a task only achievable if they win all six of their remaining matches. In Chris Gayle’s absence, Sourav Ganguly will open the innings with Brendon McCullum. Brad Hodge is in very good form and, if the supporting batsman fire, the team is capable of posting competitive totals.

Best Bet for Kolkata Knight Riders: 

Brad Hodge – 9/10
Sourav Ganguly – 8/10
Ishant Sharma – 7/10
MN van Wyk – 7/10
Wriddhiman Saha – 6/10
