Team Previews
Mysore Warriors Preview
The Mysore Warriors started their campaign with a convincing win over Bengaluru Blasters but faltered against Gulbarga Mystics despite posting 184/9. SU Karthik gave them a quick-fire start, while Muralidhara Venkatesh’s 77 (50) and Harshil Dharmani’s 40 (23) were standout knocks. However, the bowling lacked penetration, allowing the opposition to chase down the target in 18 overs.
Key strengths lie in their aggressive batting order, with Manish Pandey’s leadership adding calmness. Krishnappa Gowtham’s all-round capabilities remain vital. However, the bowling unit, including Yashovardhan Parantap and LR Kumar, must tighten their economy in the middle overs. Playing at home could give them an extra push to get back to winning ways.
Predicted XI: SU Karthik, Codanda Ajit Karthik, Muralidhara Venkatesh, Harshil Dharmani, Manish Pandey (c), Lankesh KS, Sumit Kumar (wk), Yashovardhan Parantap, Krishnappa Gowtham, Shikhar Shetty, LR Kumar
Mangalore Dragons Preview
The Dragons have been exceptional this season, winning both matches convincingly. Sharath BR’s 70 in the last match showed his form, while Aneesh KV and Aadarsh Prajwal have provided stability. Kranthi Kumar has been sensational with eight wickets in two games, including a five-wicket haul against Shivamogga Lions. Shreyas Gopal’s leadership has brought structure to their bowling attack, which has restricted opponents below 160 in both games. The key will be maintaining their early momentum against a stronger Warriors side.
Predicted XI: Lochan Gowda, Sharath BR (wk), Macneil Hadley Noronha, Aneesh KV, Aadarsh Prajwal, Shreyas Gopal (c), S Shivaraj, Kranthi Kumar, Abhilash Shetty, Paras Gurbax Arya, Shreevathsa Acharya

Favourite Team in Today’s Match
Mysore Warriors enter as favourites due to their strong batting lineup, past record against Mangalore Dragons, and home advantage at Mysore. Their top order is firing, and Manish Pandey’s experience in handling pressure situations could be decisive. While the Dragons are in good form, they haven’t yet faced a batting unit as deep and aggressive as the Warriors’. If the Warriors’ bowling holds up, their batting depth should take them home in this contest.
