Tonight in the OPPO Champions League Twenty20 2014, Kolkata Knight Riders take on the Sunfoil Dolphins at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Uppal, Hyderabad.
This Dolphins vs Kolkata Knight Riders clash which starts at 8:00 pm IST is in Group A and unfortunately it is of less significance with the Dolphins already out of the tournament. The KKR have already qualified for the Semi Finals of the OPPO CLT20 2014. Even a defeat tonight against the Dolphins has the KKR retaining their number 1 position in Group A ahead of the Chennai Super Kings.

The weather in Hyderabad is quite humid but there are no signs of rain. The pitch should be ideal for batsmen and we should expect big totals. Of course, it will be difficult to see the Dolphins dominate the spin-oriented attack of KKR which is led by Sunil Narine.
The Dolphins led by Morne van Wyk have lost all their three matches. Not sure if they have the confidence in themselves and also the motivation to defeat the Kolkata Knight Riders.
