IPL 2017, KKR vs GL: Humid, cloudy Kolkata to host Lions and Knight Riders clash

The Indian Premier League has completed half its journey and fans are as excited as they could get. It has been raining fours and sixes from the bats of some of the greatest batsmen in the history of cricket. Not only this, the newbies have also been performing quite well.

After winning a nail biting match yesterday, Mumbai Indians have secured a place at the top. With six matches won and one lost, the Indians have played well enough. Kolkata Knight Riders are not far behind with four winds and a loss.

Unfortunately, both the new teams, Gujarat Lions and the Rising Pune Supergiant are at the bottom. Both Suresh Raina and Steve Smith failed to create the magic they were supposed to.

Today, the bottom team, Gujarat Lions will have to face the mighty Kolkata Knight Riders. The match is scheduled to take place at 8:00 pm at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

As far as the weather is concerned, the city of Kolkata is expected to remain warm. The temperature will range between 29 and 30 degree Celsius. Humidity levels will be on the higher side. The chances of rainfall are highly unlikely.
