How quickly fortunes could change in a tournament like the IPL is evident from the plight of Kolkata Knight Riders who will be up against table toppers Gujarat Titans at the DY Patil on Saturday.

Shreyas Iyer-led KKR were up and running after the first four games with three wins and a loss to boast of before three successive losses came as a dampener. Their last defeats were all at the CCI’s Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai and came against Delhi Capitals, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Rajasthan Royals.
