Washington Freedom Team News
The defending champions have found their groove after losing their opener. They are unlikely to change their squad to take on the struggling Knight Riders.
Los Angeles Knight Riders Form
The Knight Riders lost their second match in a row when they went down to the Texas Super Kings by 57 runs.
The Super Kings scored a competitive 181/4 off their 20 overs. Tanveer Sangha (2/32) was the pick of the Knight Riders bowlers.
The Knight Riders slumped to 74/7 in the 11th over. Shadley van Schalkwyk top-scored with 27 batting at number nine, but they couldn’t get back on track with the asking rate and were bowled out for 124 at the start of the 18th over.
Los Angeles Knight Riders Team News
The Knight Riders need to get on the winning track quickly, so they might look to make some changes to their batting line-up.
Verdict
I am backing Washington Freedom to win. I am also backing Rachin Ravindra to top score for Washington Freedom.
