Rising Pune Supergiant host Kolkata Knight Riders in Match no. 30 of the tenth edition of the Indian Premier League. RPS have enjoyed an upswing in their fortunes having won three games on the trot against Royal Challengers Bangalore, Sunrisers Hyderabad and table toppers Mumbai Indians. The latter signaled the
end of Mumbai’s six-game winning streak. Second placed Kolkata, on the other hand, made a statement of the strength of their squad and Gautam Gambhir’s captaincy when they dismissed Royal Challengers Bangalore for a paltry total of 49, the lowest ever in the IPL, and seal an 82-run win.
