Pommie Mbangwa and Kevin Pietersen: "The dimensions are small. Longest hit is 71 metres, that's not far by any stretch of the imagination. 102 sixes in the five games played here. When you have a look at the surface, as a batter you need to be consistent and being consistent means you got to give yourself a chance. When I look down here, it actually looks very dry. I am completely fine with the batter turning up here thinking 'let me find my way here, is it going to spin, is it not going to spin.' The batters can catch up. As a bowler, you have to be precise with your skills. If you're not, you disappear too often. 194 is an average score here."

KKR have been hit by the absence of their regular skipper Shreyas Iyer and allrounder Shakib-Al Hasan. Venkatesh Iyer, Nitish Rana and N Jagadeesan have flattered to deceive. Another huge concern is the form of the big-hitting Andre Russell, who h as scored 107 runs in seven innings.
