Lucknow vs Kolkata
In the match between Lucknow and Kolkata, I chose the Kolkata team to place the bet. Lucknow provided a target of 177 runs. But Kolkata lost their first wicket on zero run, and collected only 25 runs in 6.5 overs and lost 4 valuable wickets. At the end of 11 overs though Kolkata collected 69 runs. Kolkata has very little chance of winning this match. Kolkata needs to score 108 runs from 54 balls to win.
Kolkata scored 79 runs in 12 overs. Andre Russel is playing very well. He has scored 39 runs from 17 balls. He hit 5 over boundaries. If he is stay at the crease, Kolkata will win. Narine is a good enough player. If these two players can form a good partnership, Kolkata has the potential to win. Otherwise Kolkata will lose this match
