MD vs HT Team Previews

Mangalore Dragons

After enjoying a perfect start to the season, the Mangalore Dragons endured their first loss of the season on Sunday when they were defeated by Bangalore. Nevertheless, they are still at the top of the points table.

Sharath BR and Lochan Gowda continue to open the batting for Mangalore. They have been pretty consistent this season, with Sharath BR being the leading run-scorer for the team. Thippa Reddy, who came in for Aneesh KV in the last match, wasn’t able to make much of an impact.

However, Macneil Noronha has done a decent job so far and will be joined by Aadarsh Prajwal lower down the order.

Coming to the bowling, Kranthi Kumar has been in excellent form, picking up 14 wickets in 4 games, and is the leading wicket-taker of the season. He will be joined by S Acharya with the new ball. The spin attack is pretty strong as well, thanks to the presence of Shreyas Gopal, Paras Arya, and Sachin Shinde.

Mangalore Dragons Expected Playing 11

Sharath BR, Lochan Gowda, Thippa Reddy, Macneil Noronha, Aadarsh Prajwal (WK), Shreyas Gopal (C), Kranthi Kumar, S Acharya, Sachin Shinde, S Shivaraj Ronit More

Hubli Tigers

Hubli Tigers started the season with consecutive wins. However, their recent performance has seen a dip as they have lost 2 of their last 3 matches. As a result, the team has dropped to the 3rd place in the table.
Mohammed Taha remains the team’s leading run-scorer of the tournament.

However, his form in the last few games hasn’t been the best. He will look to play better here and give Hubli a strong start along with Prakhar Chaturvedi. The middle order consists of Devdutt Padikkal, K Shrijith, and S Rakshith, while Manvanth Kumar adds depth to the batting.

The middle order, though, hasn’t been in the best of form this season and that is the risk you assume when you back them. The two spinners, Yash Raj Punja and KC Cariappa, have bowled well to pick up 10 wickets between them. However, the seamers have been a bit inconsistent.

Hubli Tigers Expected Playing 11

Prakhar Chaturvedi, Mohammed Taha, Devdutt Padikkal (C), K Shrijith, V Basavaraj, S Rakshith (WK), Manvanth Kumar, Ritesh Bhatkal, Yash Raj Punja, KC Cariappa, Nithin Nagraja
