Indian Premier League 2010
Kolkata are returning home triumphant after beating Deccan Chargers in the first game of the season in Mumbai. They started disastrously with both bat and ball but recovered to pull off a win that will help the ghosts of IPLs past seem less scary and more distant. And they are returning to the one venue in India where the loudest cheer hasn't been for Sachin Tendulkar.
In 2008, Bangalore were annihilated by McCullum in the opening game of the IPL and went down by 140 runs. In the second game at Eden Gardens, Kolkata prevailed once again, by five wickets. Bangalore won both matches against Kolkata in 2009, by five and six wickets, in the final over.

Kolkata Squad : 1 Manoj Tiwary, 2 Brad Hodge, 3 Sourav Ganguly (capt), 4 Cheteshwar Pujara, 5 Owais Shah, 6 Angelo Mathews, 7 Wriddhiman Saha (wk), 8 Laxmi Ratan Shukla, 9 Murali Kartik, 10 Charl Langeveldt, 11 Ishant Sharma.
