Big IPL Finale: Who Gets Glory Who Gets Roasted?

Two of the best performing teams in the IPL this year have reached the season finale and they are Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings. These two teams have been the most consistent this year, and they have been rightly rewarded with a place in the play-offs.

Now that the season finale has been locked and loaded with Bengaluru and Punjab, let us have a look at the kind of prospect that the two teams have.

Firstly, the game is being played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, and this is known for favouring the bowlers in the first half of the evening. This would essentially mean that the team winning the toss would want to bowl first on this pitch.

More importantly, Punjab is heavily loaded at the top and they would want to bat second on this wicket, which would otherwise expose their top quality bowling. Their obvious priority will be to bat 2nd on this pitch, despite the pressure of playing the finale and chasing a score.

On the other hand, Bengaluru has been one of the most balance of teams in the ongoing season of IPL and they will be very comfortable about the fact that they have entered the finals.

More importantly, Bengaluru has a compact yet solid middle order that can take up a challenge or two, and this would mean that they would not mind the batting first on this weekend despite the hardship.

Nevertheless, we have to see how this game eventually, as there is a lot at stake. Regardless of which team wins whether or not, Bengaluru or Punjab, we will witness a new champion in the IPL and this is perhaps the most exciting thing about the final this year.
