Harsha Bhogle : Hello and welcome all our viewers around the world . Today we are here for the 2nd match of the Indian Premier League between Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Daredevils . Well yesterday we saw an nail bitting finish to the first match of the Indian premier league which ended in a bowl out in favor of Kolkata . Are we gonna some more excitement today ? To talk about it we have David Llyod and Sunil Gavaskar in the studio . First to you David yesterday we saw a brilliant game of cricket and Twenty20 cricket at its best ?
David Llyod : Yeah we saw some great cricket 40 overs and then the bowl out was just as nail bitting as ever . We were able to see some good cricket last night and surely we will be able to see some more great cricket from these two sides .
Harsha Bhoge : What do you think about the entertainment of todays game compared to yesterday's game ?
Sunil Gavaskar : I thing that today the entertainment will be much more . Both teams have some huge hitters in the side like Andrew Symonds , David Hussey , Kevin Pietersen , Ross Taylor and so there would be lot of entertainment and the crowd would be loving . And yeah I would not be surprised if this one also goes to an bowl out .
Harsha Bhogle : Ian Botham is ready with the pitch report so lets take you live down on the pitch with Ian Botham.
Pitch Report
Ian Botham: Thanks Harsha .Well the stadium is pack as usual . Well on the pitch report its wonderful for batting . It will be a run scoring game and the ball will come nicely on the bat. the pitch is hard and not lots of crack so is a batting paradise . Bowlers will have to work hard to get wickets and some lose bowling will get some trashing for sure. Team winning the toss might decide to bat first but it really will not matter as batting 2nd time on this wicket will remain same. So it will be a run feast and all the best for both the teams . The outfield is fast and perfect timing will result to boundaries . Spinners may come into play later but i don't think they will get much help from the picth . Back to you Harsha .
Harsha Bhogle : Ian Botham with the pitch report well David what do you think what how crucial will be toss going to be.
David Llyod : As Ian said pitch will be good for batting even in the second innings then i don't think the toss is that crucial .
Harsha Bhogle :Thanks David . We will take a short break here and when we come back we will take you live for the toss with the two captains and Nasser Hussain........Stay Tuned
