Kolkata Knight Riders will want to get over mid-season blues and put their campaign back on rail

A turnaround will be the task on hand for both Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) when they meet at the Eden Gardens tonight. Having lost seven of their eight matches, RCB have no option but to win the remaining six. The Knights will want to get over mid-season blues and put their campaign back on rail. Three consecutive defeats have sown the seeds of doubt, and the path to the playoffs suddenly seems full of potholes.
The danger RCB pose for opponents stems in no small measure from the 'hopeless' situation they find themselves in. The nothing-to-lose attitude that the Bangalore outfit is likely to bring to their game now is, ironically, in cinch with the demands of T20 cricket.
