Cricket Desk: In an anticipated development, the Kolkatans have rallied behind Sourav Ganguly's Pune Warriors India and have dumped their own team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) ahead of the IPL 5 clash tomorrow. Â Even if Pune Warriors have lost four matches in a row, Kolkatans believe that their fortune would witness a change at the Eden Gardens. An interesting battle between both teams will be on the cards if rain does not play spoilsport. Â Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are on superb form in IPL 5. They are placed second in the points table with 13 points from 10 matches. They have won six matches, while lost three so far. Â On the other hand, Pune Warriors are just ahead of lowly-placed Deccan Chargers. They have 8 points from 11 matches. They have won 4, but lost 7 so far. Â People in Kolkata want Ganguly's team to win, as they believe that SRK's KKR had treated 'Dada' badly during the last season and only Pune Warriors India came to his rescue. Sourav's wife Dona has already confirmed that Kolkata would support Ganguly's Pune Warriors. It would be interesting to see how Ganguly performs before the home crowd. |
