Kolkata Knight Riders take on Rajasthan Royals in a bid to break each other winning streak as both team come into this contest having won their previous match. Shane Watson has had a better journey in IPL 2014 as compared to Gautam Gambhir as a player but as the skipper the statistics are the opposite.

The last game for both teams of the UAE leg of IPL 2014 will see an epic match between KKR and RR as they will aim at making this last game in Abu Dhabi a memorable one. Kolkata Knight Riders has been performing well mainly because of their strong line up that has provided the timely breakthroughs as they did so in their match against Kings XI Punjab by taking David Miller and Glenn Maxwell out for meager scores. Gautam Gambhir has to perform in this game after 3 ducks and a single run to show in IPL 2014.

Rajasthan Royals has been the most balanced team in the tournament so far with good performances in batting, bowling and fielding. Sanju Samson didn’t get as many runs in their previous game as he and the team would have hoped for but he is still the player to be rooting for in the Rajasthan side along with the variations of Pravin Tambe who has spun the opposition off its feet.
