Who Will Win Indore Pink Panthers vs Bundelkhand Bulls 12th T20 Madhya Pradesh League 2025 Prediction – 18th June
The Indore Pink Panthers vs Bundelkhand Bulls prediction leans in favor of the Panthers as both sides clash in the 12th T20 match of the Madhya Pradesh League 2025. Scheduled on Wednesday, 18th June 2025, at the Shrimant Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium, Gwalior, this match is crucial for both sides. The Bundelkhand Bulls, languishing at the bottom of the points table, will look to end their losing streak. Meanwhile, the Indore Pink Panthers will be eager to bounce back from their recent defeat and strengthen their position in the league standings.
The Panthers have showcased a more balanced side so far, with experienced players like Venkatesh Iyer and Kulwant Khejroliya anchoring both departments. In contrast, Bundelkhand Bulls have been inconsistent, especially with the ball. Their bowling attack, often leaking runs in powerplays and death overs, will need to perform better to trouble a power-packed Indore batting lineup. With confidence low in the Bulls’ camp, it’s a golden opportunity for Iyer and co. to return to winning ways.

Team Previews
Indore Pink Panthers Preview
After a disappointing loss to Chambal Ghariyals, the Indore Pink Panthers need a resurgence. The side is led by India international Venkatesh Iyer, whose presence adds quality and experience. Their batting lineup, featuring Akshat Raghuwanshi and Arpit Gaud, is capable of explosive starts. The middle order, with Iyer himself, Rahul Chandrol, and Vikrant Bhadoriya, offers both resilience and flair. Lower down, hitters like Akhil Nigote and Ankur Chauhan provide the finishing punch.
Bowling remains an area that needs tightening. Kulwant Khejroliya and Venkatesh Iyer gave away too many runs with the new ball in their previous outing. However, they possess the skill to rebound. The presence of Parush Mandal and Pawan Nirwani adds control in the middle overs, and the leg-spin of Mihir Hirwani can be a key asset, especially in slowing conditions.
The team must execute their plans better, particularly in death bowling and fielding, to take full advantage of Bundelkhand Bulls’ poor form.
Bundelkhand Bulls Preview
The Bulls are yet to find momentum, losing three consecutive games. Harsh Gawali’s side is under pressure, and another defeat could dent their playoff chances. Their recent 46-run loss to Gwalior Cheetahs exposed major weaknesses in both batting and bowling departments.
Top-order batters Abhishek Pathak and Karan Tahliyani need to convert their starts into impactful scores. Captain Harsh Gawali has batted decently but needs to shoulder more responsibility. The middle order, comprising Arpit Khare and Divyanshu Yadav, has lacked consistency, while lower-order batters like Shantanu Raghuvanshi and Gautam Joshi must step up and support the innings’ backend.
Bowling is the biggest concern. Priyanshu Shukla and Saumy Pandey have struggled to get early breakthroughs, and Shubham Kaithwas has leaked runs during the middle overs. Vivek Sharma remains the only bright spark, having troubled batters with his variations.
The Bulls will need an all-round performance to pull off a much-needed win against a confident Indore side.

Favourite Team Today Match (Why)
The Indore Pink Panthers go into this game as clear favourites, given their better form and balanced squad. Led by experienced all-rounder Venkatesh Iyer, the Panthers boast depth in both batting and bowling. Their top order has been more consistent, with Akshat Raghuwanshi in good touch, while their bowling attack, though expensive last game, has the resources to bounce back. In contrast, Bundelkhand Bulls have struggled in all departments, losing three on the trot. Their bowling has been their Achilles’ heel, and their top order has failed to convert starts. Unless the Bulls find a collective performance, they’re unlikely to match up to the well-rounded Indore side. With more experience and firepower, Indore is the team to beat.
