Strikers vs Kings

Mighty Striker’s Dominated Kings

Strikers are being waiting from last season for this rematch, if I am not wrong strikers was got out from playoffs because of this game. As always Strikers batting is very strong that they always make 100+ scores while batting first or chase down a score easily. Other hand Kings were very confident with few new folks added to roaster to repeat what happened last season.

Strikers won the toss and elected to bat first, they started dominating from very first over with back to back 4’s from Ravi.K who went on to score 48 Runs with (4*4 & 4*6), as Kings got most experience player Kotesh early but that happiness didn’t last long, Praveen who came as 1st down went on to score 32 Runs (2*4 & 3*6) very quickly and good partnership. Right after the break Ravi.M got back to back wickets and gave some confidence to team and strikers started losing wickets every other over then came in another most experienced/bankable player Sree.Y 26-ball 34 (2*4 & 3*6) provided a closing fillip to the innings.

Instead of beginning the chase positively they started losing wickets every over for first 5 overs, Ravi and Hari started building the innings with rotating strike and punishing bad balls, in 8th over Kings lost the settle batsmen Ravi 11 Runs (1*4, 1*6) then came in thr best batsmen and finisher Kailash who scored 14 runs (3*4) and that was much needed partnership for kings at half time kings wer in good shape with 72/5. With heavyweights such as Kailash and captain Hari 21 (3*6) also having departed, Kings had no hope of coming back into the game and got all out for 114. Things haven't gone as per plan for Kings but they won't give up easily. Let's see what happens
