KPL 2015 Match 24: Mangalore United v Rockstars, Preview

KPL 2015 Match 24: Mangalore United v Rockstars, Preview: Mysuru, September 14, 2015: Mangalore United will hope to win the toss and bat first against the Rockstars when the two teams clash in the second match of Tuesday under lights in the Karbonn Smart KPL 2015.

The idea would be to bat first and run up a huge total in the hope that their net run rate can be propped up, a factor that could make the difference between making the qualifiers or being also ran’s.

Of course that would matter if they only win the contest.

Without the services of Karun Nair, Mangalore will be that much more pressed to find a batsman who can score at a brisk pace.

The Rockstars have been pushovers and have struggled against better opposition and will certainly be hoping for one day under the Sun.

Hopes and efforts could make the difference and Rockstars skipper Sudeep will be hoping his team can pick themselves up to deliver one killer punch in this edition.
