#3 Strategy
The Knight Riders have a set the trend of going hard at their opponents in the field restrictions. They would be looking to adopt the same ploy against the Lions and enable their captain, Gautam Gambhir to play the anchor role throughout the innings.
They would look to take advantage of the inexperienced bowling line up of the Gujarat Lions and put up a huge score on the board. In the bowling department, the Knights restricted the scoring rate of their opponents with the help of their spinners bowling in tandem and the same would be expected from them against the Lions. They would look to strangle the batsmen and build pressure with the help of their spinners, resulting in crucial breakthroughs.
The Lions would be hoping for the bowling department led by Andrew Tye to come good against the Knight Riders. This has been their weak link throughout this edition and they will be looking to turn things around with some match winning spells.
They would be expecting their in-form batters to continue with the good work and hope to build the small partnerships into something substantial. The bowling unit will be under the spotlight and they need to come up with the goods if the Lions have any chance of making it into the playoffs.
