Teams Preview
Belagavi Panthers
The Belagavi Panthers have been on a roll having won their last two games convincingly chasing down targets. Their batsmen have been in song with Manish Pandey and Stallin Hoover smashing centuries in the tournament. They are currently in the third position and a win here should ensure they qualify to the next stage of the tournament. The bowling attack of Zahoor Farooqui, Darshan MB, Avinash D, and Ritesh Bhatkal have been able to reign in the opposition batsmen and restrict them to moderate scores.
Key Players:
Manish Pandey: The classy right-hander came into the tournament late but has already lit up with his scintillating batting. He's looked a class apart, dispatching the bowlers with ease and is now the second-highest run-getter. The India international has transformed the fortunes of the Belagavi Panthers and will look to ensure they end the league stages as one of the top four teams.
Zahoor Farooqui: The leader of the Belagavi Panther's bowling attack has ensured opposition teams have been restricted to moderate scores. The fast bowler has been incisive in his opening spell and been clever at the death with his variations. He has already picked up 5 wickets so far and will be looking to add more to his collection. He will be entrusted with the responsibility of bowling the tough overs and will have to keep his cool to ensure a victory for his team.
Belagavi Panthers Actual Playing XI:
Ravikumar Samarth, Abhinav Manohar, Ritesh Bhatkal, Kaunain Abbas, AS Brar, Stallin Hoover, MB Darshan, Dikshanshu Negi, Shubang Hegde, Zahoor Farooqui, D Avinash

Bijapur Bulls
The Defending Champions are currently at the bottom of the table due to a combination of disappointing performances and weather interruptions. They will need to win their remaining two games to ensure they guarantee a place in the top four and be in a position to defend their title. Bharath Chipli has replicated his form from the previous year but he has not received any significant support from other batsmen and that has left them at the position they currently are. The Bulls will need a collective performance to challenge the in form Belagavi Panthers.
Key Players:
Bharat Chipli: The Bijapur Bulls captain has led from the front with his batting and has provided rapid starts. However, his teammates have not been able to carry forward his good work and so are languishing at the bottom of the table. The Bulls batting talisman will be gunning for the Orange cap as he is currently in 5th position in the list of highest run-getters. For Bijapur Bulls to qualify, their captain has to produce two match-winning performances with the bat and hope that others follow suit.
Prateek Jain: The wiry left-hander has been an excellent addition to the Bijapur Bulls bowling attack and has bowled economically throughout the tournament. He will be disappointed though in not being able to defend 12 runs in the last over in their previous encounter against the Hubli Tigers and conceding 6 of the last ball. Prateek J will be looking to bounce back from that and keen to rectify his performance. Jain will be key in ensuring the Bulls pick up early wickets and denting the opposition batting.
Bijapur Bulls Actual Playing XI:
Raju Bhatkal, Suneel Raju, Jeshwanth Acharya, KC Cariappa, GS Chiranjeevi, Suraj Kamath, Swapnil Yelave, NP Bhareth, Bharat Chipli, Prateek Jain, Gneshwar Naveen

Pitch And Weather Conditions
The pitches at Mysore for this edition of the tournament have been batting beauties with teams chasing down high scores comfortably. We already have a century at the venue and can expect to see a few more in the coming days with there being no assistance for the bowlers. The bowlers will be expected to keep the opposition batting tight and restrict them to a reasonable score and the batsmen need to do all the heavy lifting. There is a possibility of rain interruption but both teams will be hoping that it does not affect this crucial contest.
VENUE
The Srikantadatta Narasimha Raja Wadiyar ground has already shown the signs of being a paradise for the batsmen in the first two games. The small ground and quick outfield will ensure the crowds are treated to an exhibition of batting and high scoring games. The smaller venue should expect a huge crowd who will be hoping for an even contest between two evenly matched teams.
Toss Prediction
The first two matches at this venue have had the team batting second chase down totals comfortably. The captain winning the toss will look to bowl first and restrict the opponents to a moderate total. The good batting wickets and the small dimension of the ground mean the team batting second will fancy their chances of chasing down any total.
Winning Prediction
The defending champions Bijapur Bulls come into this contest in a must-win situation, they cannot afford any more hiccups as that will mean the end of their tournament journey. The Belagavi Panthers, on the other hand, can still qualify if they lose this game but that will then depend on the results of the other games. The strong batting lineup of both teams will relish the opportunity to bat on this track which should offer very little to the bowlers.
The form and the batting strength of the Belagavi Panthers make them favorites for the win going into this crucial game.
