Pithoragarh Hurricanes vs Tehri Titans Prediction, 2nd T20, Uttarakhand Premier League 2026
Pithoragarh Hurricanes vs Tehri Titans prediction for the second match of the Uttarakhand Premier League 2026 brings together two teams with contrasting records from the previous season. Pithoragarh Hurricanes finished the 2025 league campaign with one win, four defeats and one no-result, while Tehri Titans also managed only one win from six matches. Both sides therefore enter the new season with plenty to prove.
The match will be played on September 23 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Dehradun. Pithoragarh have Mayank Mishra as their 2026 icon player, while Tehri Titans are built around their icon player Tejasvi Jaiswal. The 2026 squads have been substantially refreshed, so results from last season need to be used alongside the new personnel rather than treated as a direct indicator.
The latest meeting between these teams provides an interesting reference point. On October 1, 2025, Tehri Titans scored 202/4, but Pithoragarh chased the target by making 206/2. Piyush Joshi scored 106 from 61 balls and Rohit Danu made 83 from 51, producing an eight-wicket victory.
The historical rivalry also includes two meetings from the inaugural 2023 UPL season. Tehri won both, including the final by six wickets after chasing 140, while the league meeting ended with Tehri chasing 184 by two wickets.
The current contest is therefore difficult to assess purely through H2H. Pithoragarh have the latest victory, while Tehri have the stronger overall historical record. The decisive factors are likely to be the new squads, batting stability and how the teams adapt to a Dehradun surface that has recently produced high-scoring T20 matches.

| 29 Sep 2025 | USN Indians | Won | 68/4 | 56/3 | Won by 6 wickets, DLS |
Tehri also had only one win in their latest five T20 matches. Their final four matches of the 2025 league were defeats, despite scoring 202/4 against Pithoragarh in the penultimate game.
The major weakness was batting consistency. Tehri were bowled out for 129 against Haridwar and were reduced to 53/3 in a rain-shortened game against Nainital. However, their 202/4 against Pithoragarh showed that the batting unit can score quickly when established.
Pithoragarh Hurricanes Preview
Pithoragarh Hurricanes have made Mayank Mishra their icon player for the 2026 season. Their squad contains 20 players, including Siddharth Choudhary, Satyam Baaliyan, Vaibhav Bhatt, Aanjaneya Suryavanshi, Priyanshu Barswal, Vikas Bhati, Yash Shukla, Shivansh Gautam and Samarth Semwal.
The side’s 2025 campaign was difficult, but its batting potential was demonstrated several times. Against Tehri on October 1, Pithoragarh chased 203/4 with eight wickets in hand. Piyush Joshi’s 106 from 61 balls and Rohit Danu’s 83 from 51 made that chase one of the strongest batting performances of the season.
However, consistency was missing. Pithoragarh lost to Dehradun by 10 wickets after making 120/6, lost to Nainital by four wickets after scoring 142/8 and then conceded 252/6 against Haridwar. Their final game against Rishikesh also ended in an 87-run defeat.
The 2026 squad is different from the group responsible for those results. Mayank Mishra now provides the central leadership and all-round option, while players such as Satyam Baaliyan, Aanjaneya Suryavanshi and Priyanshu Barswal add younger batting possibilities.
Pithoragarh’s biggest tactical requirement is batting stability. The side has already shown that it can chase a 200-plus target, but it has also repeatedly lost wickets or struggled to maintain scoring pressure.
At Dehradun, the evidence suggests that a high-scoring approach can work. A 2025 UPL match at this venue saw Nainital make 203/7, while Pithoragarh themselves reached 206/2 against Tehri. The venue has also been described in previous UPL reports as a flat, high-scoring surface with pace and bounce available to seamers and slower spin useful as the innings progresses.
If Pithoragarh can preserve wickets during the first six overs, their batting depth should allow them to attack strongly from the middle overs onwards.
Tehri Titans Preview
Tehri Titans enter UPL 2026 with Tejasvi Jaiswal as their icon player and leader. Their squad includes Vijay Sharma, Aryan Sharma, Ravinder Negi, Nikhil Harsh, Anmol Shah, Ansh Tyagi, Aditya Semwal, Lincoln, Ayush Deswal, Aniket S Malik, Vinayak Baluni and Raghav Yadav.
The Titans’ 2025 campaign ended with only one win from six matches. They defeated USN Indians in a rain-shortened match but subsequently lost to Nainital, Pithoragarh, Dehradun and Haridwar. Their final standings record was one win and five losses.
Their strongest batting performance came against Pithoragarh. Tehri made 202/4, with Aryan Sharma scoring 83 from only 32 balls and Ishagra Jagoori contributing 51 from 34. Despite that effort, Pithoragarh chased the target in 19.1 overs.
That match illustrates both sides of Tehri’s potential. Their batting can score at a very high rate, but the bowling unit must improve its ability to defend a substantial total.
The 2026 squad has changed considerably, with Tejasvi Jaiswal now serving as the icon player. The new group includes several younger players, so their ability to handle pressure in the first match will be important.
Tehri’s best route is likely to attack Pithoragarh’s top order early. The Hurricanes’ 2025 defeats against Dehradun and Nainital showed that they can struggle when wickets fall before the innings settles.

Weather Report
| Weather Factor | Forecast |

| Temperature | Around 23–30°C |
| Humidity | Around 59% according to one current forecast |
| Rain Chance | Low |
| Wind | Around 6 km/h |
| Conditions | Mainly clear, becoming partly cloudy towards evening |
The latest Dehradun forecast for September 23 indicates around 30°C maximum and 23°C minimum, with a low 2% rain chance, around 59% humidity and average wind of approximately 6 km/h.
The IMD’s Dehradun forecast also expects a mainly clear day becoming partly cloudy towards the afternoon or evening, with a 35°C maximum and 21°C minimum. No weather warning is listed for September 23.
Rain therefore does not currently appear to be a major interruption risk. Humidity and the evening conditions could produce some assistance for bowlers, but there is no strong forecast signal suggesting that weather should materially alter the prediction.

Pithoragarh Hurricanes vs Tehri Titans Toss Prediction & Strategy
If Pithoragarh Hurricanes wins the toss
Pithoragarh should consider batting first. The venue has a higher historical first-innings average and more wins for teams setting a target. Their batting unit also demonstrated in 2025 that it can turn a good platform into a 180-plus score.
A first-innings target around 175–185 would give their bowling attack useful scoreboard pressure.
If Tehri Titans wins the toss
Tehri could also choose to bat first, particularly because their strongest recent performance against Pithoragarh came when they scored 202/4.
However, the 2025 match showed that even a 200-plus total was not necessarily enough, so the Titans would need both a strong total and disciplined bowling.
Toss Prediction
Predicted toss winner: Pithoragarh Hurricanes
The toss itself remains a 50-50 event and should not materially affect the underlying probability.
Score Prediction
| Batting-First Scenario | Projected Score |
|---|---|
| Pithoragarh Hurricanes batting first | 170–185 |
| Tehri Titans batting first | 165–180 |
Winning Chances
| Team | Winning Probability |
|---|---|
| Pithoragarh Hurricanes | 56% |
| Tehri Titans | 44% |
Why the Win Percentage?
| Factor | Pithoragarh Hurricanes | Tehri Titans | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Batting | Strong latest H2H batting performance | Capable of 200-plus totals | Even |
| Bowling | Need greater consistency | Also inconsistent in 2025 | Even |
| All-round depth | Mayank Mishra provides balance | Several multi-dimensional options | Even |
| Powerplay | Capable but inconsistent | Strong attacking potential | Even |
| Middle overs | New squad uncertainty | New squad uncertainty | Even |
| Death overs | Recent results mixed | Defending totals was a problem | Pithoragarh |
| Recent form | 1 win in last 5 | 1 win in last 5 | Even |
| Venue suitability | Chased 202 successfully here | Scored 202 here | Even |
| Head-to-head | 1–2 overall | 2–1 overall | Tehri |
| Latest H2H | Won by 8 wickets | Lost after scoring 202 | Pithoragarh |
| Player availability | Current squad confirmed | Current squad confirmed | Even |
The probability is mainly driven by the latest meeting, where Pithoragarh successfully chased 203 with only two wickets down.
The venue is another important factor. Both teams have already demonstrated that they can score heavily at Dehradun, so the match may ultimately be decided by which bowling attack handles the final five overs better.
Key Player Matchups
| Matchup | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Mayank Mishra vs Tehri’s middle-over bowlers | As Pithoragarh’s icon all-rounder, Mishra’s contribution can influence both innings. Keeping him quiet during the middle overs could restrict Pithoragarh’s acceleration. |
| Tejasvi Jaiswal vs Pithoragarh new-ball attack | Jaiswal is Tehri’s icon player and is expected to be an important top-order batter. His powerplay performance could determine whether Tehri establish a high-scoring platform. |
| Pithoragarh top order vs Tehri death bowling | Pithoragarh’s 206/2 chase in 2025 showed how damaging they can become once set. Tehri must execute yorkers and slower balls effectively at the death. |
Pithoragarh Hurricanes vs Tehri Titans Match Prediction
Pithoragarh Hurricanes are marginally favoured against Tehri Titans in the second match of UPL 2026. The two sides have similar recent records, but Pithoragarh won their most recent meeting by chasing 203/4 with eight wickets in hand. The Dehradun venue has also produced high-scoring cricket, making batting stability particularly important.
