Knight Riders set to clash with Delhi Daredevils


Hosts Kolkata Knight Riders and Delhi Daredevils, who are better-placed to make the semi-finals, will look to climb up the Indian Premier League (IPL) ladder after their high-voltage clash here on Tuesday.Both teams will go into the battle at the Eden Gardens with different feelings. While Sourav Ganguly's team have won their last two matches to take their tally to eight points from eight matches, Virender Sehwag's Delhi have suffered close defeats in their last three matches to remain at eight.Although both teams have eight points from as many matches, the Knight Riders (+0.545) are a shade ahead of Delhi (+0.500) on the net run rate. With the race in the 59-match Twenty20 tournament intensifying, net run rate could come into play in determining the semi-finals if the qualifying teams tie on points
