52nd match of this season of IPL
will be played between Pune
Warriors and Rajasthan Royals on May 8, 2012 at Subrata Roy Sahara Stadium, Pune. The
match will start at 4.00 PM sharp and this is the first match of the day. This
match is important for both the teams because both the teams are not in a very
good position to get entry in the semi-final group. A win in this match can
slightly turn the situation, even if not selected in semi-finals; one of the
teams can be in an average position.
After losing five matches in a row, Pune
Warriors India just collapsed into the 8th position in the Points
Table. After performing in a superb way in their initial matches, the team
started losing the matches miserably to be at the bottom of the table. Captain
Saurav Ganguly headed his team in a perfect way but gradually inconsistency started
to appear among the team players and these mistakes in the field took a huge
toll of the team’s success. So far, Pune has played 12 matches and only 4
matches are left, including today’s match. To get entry in the play-offs, the
team needs to win all these four matches which is really a touch thing for any
team. However, Saurav’s team is ready to take the challenge and they are well
prepared to face Rajasthan Royals in their home ground today to get the first
win to begin this challenge in an excellent way.
Rajasthan Royals on the other
hand, is also in a similar situation like Pune but obviously in a better
position. Making a fabulous start, the team had been in the top position in the
tally table but gradually the performance rate started to decline steeply and
finally the team is residing in the 6th position. In comparison to
Pune team, Rajasthan has many competent and good players but these ace players
have been unsuccessful in giving explosive innings in this tournament. At the
moment, the team is also looking for an entry in the play-offs and for that
this team has five matches in hand. Among these five matches, the team needs at
least three victories to confirm their entry. So there is a little bit less
pressure over Rajasthan as compared to Pune.
So when both the teams are ready for a new
phase of challenge to get qualified in the play-offs, the match seems to be
very exciting and colorful with a lot of supporters for both Dada and Dravid.
Probable team players for Pune Warriors India: Sourav Ganguly (c), Manish Pandey, Robin Uthappa (wk), Michael Clarke,
Steven Smith, Mithun Manhas, J Ryder, Wayne Parnell, Murali Kartik, Bhuvneshwar
