Good evening folks. Gujarat Lions are set to take on table-toppers Kolkata Knight Riders at the Eden Gardens in their bid to end the three-match losing streak. A victory on Sunday (May 8) will help Gujarat Lions move to the top of the points table, a position that they had occupied for quite some time.

Given Kolkata Knight Riders current form, it will be very tough for Gujarat Lions, who have secured two last-ball wins and followed it up with three defeats to topple the hosts. Nonetheless, both the sides have well-rounded squads to choose from.

Nearly the 30% of the stadium has already been filled with an hour remaining for play to start.

Kolkata Knight Riders: Gautam Gambhir (c), Robin Uthappa, Manish Pandey, Yusuf Pathan, Andre Russell, Suryakumar Yadav, Piyush Chawla, Brad Hogg, Shakib Al Hasan, Umesh Yadav, Morne Morkel, Sunil Narine, Chris Lynn, Jason Holder, Manan Sharma, Colin Munro, Kuldeep Yadav, Sheldon Jackson, Ankit Rajpoot, Jaydev Unadkat, Rajagopal Sathish.

Gujarat Lions: Suresh Raina (c), Dwayne Smith, Brendon McCullum, Aaron Finch, Dinesh Karthik, Ravindra Jadeja, James Faulkner, Ishan Kishan, Praveen Kumar, Dhawal Kulkarni, Shivil Kaushik, Sarabjit Ladda, Amit Mishra, Akashdeep Nath, Dwayne Bravo, Paras Dogra, Eklavya Dwivedi, Shadab Jakati, Pradeep Sangwan, Jaydev Shah, Umang Sharma, Dale Steyn, Pravin Tambe, Andrew Tye.

Brendon McCullum, who was struggling to middle the ball for quite some time in the innings, eventually departs holing out to Manish Pandey at long off. He charged down the track to Piyush Chawala and yet again failed to find the middle of the bat. Even as Gujarat Lions are well positioned in the chase, the testing period has just started for them.
