A-RZ--CRICKET--UH-BSB4 vs MANT Team Previews
Urbanrisers Hyderabad
Playing their debut season, the Urbanrisers Hyderabad have been clinical in their performance as they finished 2nd on the points table. They then went on to defeat the Manipal Tigers in Qualifier 1 to book a spot in the Finals.
Dwayne Smith has been consistent at the top of the order and is the leading run-getter in this tournament with 213 runs. He scored a brilliant century in Qualifier 1 and will look to put up a similar performance.
He will be joined by Martin Guptill as the opening partner but the latter hasn’t been in the best of forms. The middle order consists of Gurkeerat Singh and Rikki Clarke, both of whom have played some good innings. Captain Suresh Raina will play the role of a finisher and look to add some runs towards the death.
Peter Trego has emerged as a reliable all-rounder, scoring 130 runs and picking up 6 wickets. He is the joint-highest wicket-taker of the team along with Chris Mpofu and Pawan Suyal, and the trio makes up for a potent seam attack.
The team is however a bit lacking in the spin department.
Urbanrisers Hyderabad Playing 11
Martin Guptill, Dwayne Smith, Rikki Clarke, Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Suresh Raina, Peter Trego, Stuart Binny, Asghar Afghan, Jerome Taylor, Chris Mpofu, Amit Paunikar, SB Jakati.
Manipal Tigers
The Manipal Tigers ended with the wooden spoon in the last season but in a remarkable turnaround, made it to the top this time around. They were defeated by Hyderabad in Qualifier 1 but went on to beat India Capitals in Qualifier 2.
The opening pair of Chadwick Walton and Mohammad Kaif will look to give the team a strong start. Walton is the leading run-scorer for the team with 187 runs. Angelo Perera and Colin de Grandhomme have been pretty consistent in the middle order.
The team will want at least one of them to play till the end if they want to post a big total. Coming to the bowling, Imran Khan is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament with 9 wickets. Thisara Perera and Mitchell McClenaghan picked up 3 wickets each in the last match and will lead the pace attack alongside Pankaj Singh and Parvinder Awana.
Harbhajan Singh is the specialist spinner on the team. He has picked up 5 wickets and is also quite economical.

Pitch and Conditions
The pitch at the Lalbhai Contractor Stadium on Surat is excellent to bat on. The pitch is flat with some patches of grass. The new ball does show some movement off the seam but once the batsmen settle down, they should be able to play their shots. The team batting first will look to score over 200 runs to feel safe. There isn’t much help for the spinners on this ground.
The weather will remain clear with temperatures between 23 and 27 degrees Celsius.
There is likely to be some dew on the ground, especially during the second half.
