BNB vs SML Betting Tips
Total Runs 1st Over - Over 6.5 runs
We have seen some dramatically fast starts from the openers and think this could be a great chance for openers from both sides to do the same.
Total Maidens in Match - Over 0.5
This is a great market to take a punt on. Shivamogga Lions have struggled so much with their batting that another situation in which they are completely under pressure and forced to play a maiden cannot be ruled out.

BB vs SL Team Previews
Bengaluru Blasters
The Bengaluru Blasters have been a bit inconsistent this season. Nevertheless, with 4 wins in 7 games, they are currently placed third on the points table, and another win here will greatly improve their chances of making it to the playoffs.
LR Chethan has been the team’s best batsman this season and will look to give the team a good start. However, he needs better support from Rohan Patil, who has struggled a bit against the new ball. The middle order consists of Mayank Agarwal, Suraj Ahuja, and Shubhang Hegde.
They are all quite experienced in the Maharaja league, and if one of them stays till the death overs, Bengaluru could post a big total. Bengaluru has a balanced bowling unit at its disposal. Vidyadhar Patil and Naveen MG are likely to lead the attack with the new ball.
They have picked up 17 wickets between them. They will look to make early inroads in Shivamogga’s top order. Shubhang Hegde and Mohsin Khan are the team’s best bowlers, picking up 21 wickets between them, and will feature in the spin department.
Bengaluru Blasters Expected Playing 11
LR Chethan, Rohan Patil, Mayank Agarwal (C), Naveen MG, Suraj Ahuja (WK), Shubhang Hegde, Rohan Naveen, Madhav Prakash, Mohsin Khan, Vidyadhar Patil, Prateek Jain

Shivamogga Lions
With 5 losses and a washed-out match, the Shivamogga Lions are struggling at the moment. They are placed at the bottom of the points table and have the worst NRR among all teams. With only 4 games to go, including this one, they will have to treat each one of them as a virtual knockout.
The batting for Shivamogga has been underwhelming, to say the least. Aniruddha Joshi is the leading run-scorer for the team and has done a decent job in the middle order. However, he hasn’t been consistent enough.
Also, the other batsmen in the middle order, including Tushar Singh, Aneeshwar Gautam, and Hardik Raj, haven’t been able to get going. The opening pair of Dhruv Prabhakar and Nihal Ullal has often struggled against the new ball. They will have to give the team a strong start if Shivamogga wants to put up a big total.
The bowling has been below par as well. Vasuki Koushik is the team’s leading wicket-taker with 7 wickets, but has been expensive at times. Also, he has received little support for V Kaverappa. The spin department consists of Anand Doddamani and Hardik Raj, who have picked up 4 wickets each.
Shivamogga Lions Expected Playing 11
Dhruv Prabhakar, Nihal Ullal (C & WK), Aneeshwar Gautam, Aniruddha Joshi, Anand Doddamani, Hardik Raj, Vasuki Koushik, V Kaverappa, Avinash D, MB Darshan, Tushar Singh
BB vs SL Toss Prediction
In each of the last 10 matches played here, the team winning the toss has opted to field first. We expect that trend to continue.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
While there was plenty of rain in Mysore over the last week, the weather seems to have cleared up a bit, and the surface is gradually drying out, making it better to bat on. That said, there is still plenty of help on offer for the seamers. The spinners will need to bowl slower and toss the ball to get some turn.
A score of around 180 is a par score on this surface. The weather is likely to remain overcast throughout the day.
BB vs SL: Who Will Win?
We are backing the Bengaluru Blasters to win. While not in the best of form, Bengaluru has played better cricket compared to Shivamogga Lions. The latter have struggled on all fronts and are likely to find it difficult to bounce back.
Bet on the Bengaluru Blasters to win.
BB vs SL win percentage stands at 68% in favor of BB.
Todays Match Prediction: Bengaluru Blasters to Win.
