BB vs GM Team Previews

Bengaluru Blasters

With 5 wins in 8 matches, the Bengaluru Blasters are currently at the top of the points table. They also have the best NRR among all teams, and a win here will take them through to the playoffs.

The Bengaluru Blasters have a strong top order consisting of LR Chethan, Rohan Patil, and Mayank Agarwal. Patil and Chethan are the top two run-getters for the team and will look to give Bengaluru a good start here. Mayank Agarwal has played a couple of good knocks as well. However, the batting lower down the order hasn’t been consistent enough.

While Suraj Ahuja, Shubhang Hegde, Bhuvan Raju, and Madhav Prakash are all experienced players, they have often failed to convert their starts into big knocks. The bowling from Bengaluru has been brilliant.

The two spinners, Shubhang Hegde and Mohsin Khan, have bowled well during the middle overs and picked up 11 wickets each. Naveen MG and Vidyadhar Patil, the two seamers, have bowled well too, to pick up 20 wickets between them.

Gulbarga Mystics

Just like their opponents, the Gulabarga Mystics have won 5 of the 8 matches they have featured in. Nevertheless, they find themselves in the third place due to their low NRR.

Gulbarga boasts of a strong batting line-up. Skipper Smaran Ravichandran has led the team from the front and is the leading run-scorer of the season, having scored 4 half-centuries in his 7 outings. Joining him in the middle order will be the likes of Mohit BA and K Siddharth.

Luvnith Sisodia and Prajwal Pavan are likely to reprise their role at the top of the order. They have given the team some good starts and hope to do so yet again. However, the bowling has been a weak link for the Mystics this season.

The seamers, including Vijayakumar Vyshak, Monish Reddy, and Lavish Kaushal, have failed to take full advantage of the new ball. Similarly, the two spinners, Prithviraj Shekhawat and Shashi Kumar, have bowled well in patches but have often been expensive.

Gulbarga Mystics Expected Playing 11

Luvnith Sisodia (WK), Prajwal Pavan, Smaran Ravichandran (C), Mohit BA, Praveen Dubey, K Siddharth, Prithviraj Shekhawat, Lavish Kaushal, Shashi Kumar, Monish Reddy Santosh Hatti

BB vs GM Toss Prediction

In 9 of the last 10 matches played here, the team winning the toss opted to bowl first, and we expect that trend to continue.

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

The weather in Mysore has cleared a bit over the last couple of days, and the pitch seems to have dried out. The surface is likely to be flat and hard, offering excellent pace and bounce. The team batting first will look to score over 180 runs to give the bowlers a fair chance at defending the target.

The seamers and the slower bowlers have enjoyed equal success at this stadium, and taking a balanced approach will be the key. The weather is expected to remain overcast, with the possibility of rain during the afternoon.

BB vs GM: Who Will Win?

We are backing the Bengaluru Blasters to win this match. They have been pretty consistent this year and thanks to a balanced squad, the team has done well across all departments. On the other hand, Gulbarga’s bowling hasn’t been the best, and that could be an Achilles heel for them.

Bet on the Bengaluru Blasters to win.

BB vs GM win percentage stands at 53% in favor of BB.
