Delhi "Dare" the Pune Warriors Tonight in IPL


 


 

 Sehwag will be going against his former national captain Sourav Ganguly at the Feroz Shah Kotla on Saturday night. Delhi are coming off a splendid victory against the Deccan Chargers courtesy Peitersen's mind-boggling 100 and will be looking to repeat their majestic performance two nights ago. Sehwag has a great team at his disposal and will certainly expect big things from the likes of  Taylor, Mahela, KP and Morkel. Delhi Daredevils is dependent on its World Class batting line up to do the job for them, but the bowlers have performed well too. Morne Morkel has looked a class apart and troubled all the top batsmen in this IPL with his pace and bounce. His bowling at the depth has proved to be bonus. Infact, he has got good support from Irfan and Umesh who have proved frugal too. Shahbaz Nadeem has been the find of the season as far as Daredevils are concerned.Delhi Devils vs Pune Warriors is certainly  going to have many eyeballs rolling .

Ganguly's men started the season in grand fashion but have gone slightly off the mark in the previous two matches. The last two matches for them were close encounters and could have gone either way but the Warriors ended up on the losing side on both the occassions. The Warriors have got a pretty good batting line up as well with hard hitters like Uthappa and Ryder opening the innings. The start for Pune matters a great deal because Ganguly hasn't found his touch till now in the tournament. T20 specialists such as Samuels, Mathews and Steve Smith can come in handy in the middle order and can bowl a few tight overs too. Dada would like to get back to winning ways and get some more points in the bag.

Though Delhi Daredevils look a strong side on paper, the Pune Warriors have got players who could turn the game at any moment. It promises to be a good clash between Sehwag and Ganguly and both will also be hoping to score some individual run. So, eagerly wait for this game to begin and the action to roll on at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi. You can watch the match live on Set Max at 8 p.m IST.
