Today Match: Rajasthan vs Kolkata

Gaji No comments


Rajasthan Royals will be bolstering by the return of Shane Watson when they take on Kolkata Knight Riders in an IPL match in Jaipur today.

Under the wily Shane Warne, Royals have commenced their IPL IV campaign in great style; comfortably defeat Deccan Chargers and Delhi Daredevils by eight and four wickets correspondingly in their first two games.

Watson, who was in unhelpful form against Bangladesh in the just-concluded three-match ODI series, should further strengthen Rajasthan's batting as well as bowling.

Watson scored a mammoth 294 runs against Bangaldesh, which included a twister 185 not out in the second ODI, as well as a world record of 15 sixes.

Rajasthan's batting was the foundation of their victories in the opening matches, with South African Johan Botha playing the lead role with victorious knocks of 67 and 39.

Watson, in all prospects, will substitute Shaun Tait and open the batting along with ever-dependable Rahul Dravid.

Warne is spoilt for choice as far as his foreign quota is troubled. Apart from himself, he has Tait, Watson, Johan Botha and Ross Taylor to choose from.

However, with only four foreigners allowed to characteristic in the playing eleven, he has a few problems up his sleeves as he, Botha and Taylor is certain to play on Friday.
