Will Bangalore get 'Bangalored' today at the Chinnaswamy Stadium is the big question going around
Will the same happen with Chris Gayle, until last year the one with the most followers after skipper Virat Kohli, should he be given a chance (he was made to sit out of Punjab's opening game) is another interesting factor. Not being retained or picked by Bangalore in the auction is one thing, but to go a few rounds with no other team picking him either, is sure to have hit the big West Indian hard and there's no better revenge he could seek than to have a chance to take on his old colleagues at what was his home away from home.
According to his now colleague Andrew Miller, that's unlikely to happen but Bangalore coach Daniel Vettori is still wary of his former colleague. "We probably won't play against Chris tomorrow given the way they're set up, but if anyone is aware of Chris' strengths, it's Bangalore," said the former New Zealand captain. So, will the new Punjab skipper Ravichandran Ashwin give him a go? Let's wait and watch!
