Kolkata, April 19: In red hot form after back-to-back wins, Kochi Tuskers Kerala would be aiming to halt Kolkata Knight Riders’ three-match winning run when the two sides face off in their Indian Premier League match at the Eden Gardens here tomorrow.
A few days ago Kochi Tuskers were all about a struggling bunch.
After a couple of meek performances — against Royal Challengers Bangalore and fellow debutants Pune Warriors India — many wrote them off saying they were the weakest team in IPL Season 4.
But things have changed dramatically after two matches.
After beating heavyweights Mumbai Indians and holders Chennai Super Kings, Kochi have suddenly become giant-killers from underdogs.
In match where Sachin Tendulkar hogged the limelight with his first IPL century, Mahela Jayawardene and Co spoiled the maestro’s party with a mind-boggling eight wicket win.
