Evenly Balanced Sides Seek for More Stability

                 Well balanced sides showing good sign's so far in this season with only lossing one game a piece. But on Wednesday one side will add one more loss to the table, as Gujarat lions take on Delhi daredevil's at the capital of the nation.
              Gujarat as been following the trend of this season in terms of  chasing, they have won 4 games out of 5 batting second. The top order  giving them more than a brisk start every time and it was well negotiated by their slowly getting in to their groves of the middle and lower order.
              While Gujarat have abounded options with the ball, but the death bowling is the area for improvement with Bravo going for too many. They have struggled in one of the game, where they batted first and need to come good to have a sucesssful run in the long tournament.
             On the other side everything going well for Daredevil's, after their opening loss from the top order to their death bowling. While the team seems to be in a Combination of Proteas and Indian crop players and they where well lead by Zaheer in terms of tactics, and managing players.
              The win in the last game agianst Mumbai will add up more to their confidence, where they defended a par total after a brisk start from Mumbai batsmen. Although batting will be crucial especially from Indian crop players with their inexperience, against experienced Lions batsmen.
              The pitch at Kotla as been good for batting through out the game and slowing down a bit in the second half. Slower bowlers will be crucial as the pitch assisting for spinners a bit and with quality spinners in both the sides, it will be an even contest to watch for.
               Meanwhile nothing to chose from evenly balanced sides in terms of Combination and depth, as the Contest lies heavily between top order and bowlers of both the sides.
