Dream11 Prediction

Both these teams have done a great job so far in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy for the 2023 season. They are both sitting on 12 points and the different positions in the points tally are largely because of net run rate. This game is also being played at a neutral venue and so, there is no home turf advantage. All-in-all Punjab appears to have developed a winning momentum and we expect them to win this match.
