Kolkata Knight Riders vs Kochi Tuskers IPL Match - Betting Preview

April 20 - The Kolkata Knight Riders will meet the Kochi Tuskers at Eden Gardens on Wednesday, and this may prove to be one of the most important Indian Premier League Matches this season.

KKR are currently at the top of the IPL table, with three wins out of their four games so far.

After finishing fifth, last and sixth in the last three seasons, the team needs to get used to being at the top - even though there is still a long way to go before the season ends.

Kolkata are considered good contenders to claim their first IPL victory and there seems to be no stopping them, thanks to the powerful Gautam Gambhir at their head and an excellent balance between local and international players.

Kochi had a poor start to the season, but have managed to bounce back after beating last year's runners up, the Mumbai Indians, followed by a victory over the defending champs, Chennai Super Kings.

While Kochi's team may not be as balanced as KKR, their players, including Brendon McCullum, Raivndra Jadeja and skipper Mahal Jayawardene, have pitched in to take the team to new heights this IPL season.

Kolkata may go into the game with a lot of well-earned self confidence, but may need to be careful of Kochi's abilities on the field, especially their powerful batting skills.
