Mangalore Dragons will be keen to take the home turf advantage in this contest. They will look to capitalize on the support of the fans to consolidate their position early on in the competition. Mangalore Dragons are going into this contest with a balanced team.
It has a good blend of promising youngsters and experienced players. Shreyas Gopal will lead this team. He has been consistent with both bat and ball, and the entire side showed resilience in the recently concluded domestic tournament.
The likes of Shreyas Gopal and Kranthi Kumar will lead the bowling attack. The Strength of Mangalore's bowling attack lies in its disciplined bowling. They have batters that are capable of raising the tempo of the innings at crucial junctures, such as death overs.
The middle order appeared fragile in the recent game under pressure. However, they also have spinners that can take advantage of home conditions. They have already recorded their first win of the competition this year.

Shivamogga Lions
Shivamogga Lions lost their last game in the competition against Hubli Tigers recently by a margin of 29 runs. The Shivamogga outfit has fielded some new players this year. They will be keen to display their prowess and progress in this contest.
The team will be led by Nihal Ullal, who is a wicketkeeper-batter for Lions. In their last encounter, Vidwath Kaverappa was the pick of the bowlers for Shivamogga Lions with two wickets while conceding 39 runs from his four overs. V Koushik was the only bowler to have bowled with a decent economy rate in this contest.
Other Lions' bowlers were taken to the cleaners by the Tigers' batters. The Lions' innings got off to a disastrous start in this contest, but a late charge by Aniruddha Joshi nearly got them a win in this contest.
Joshi hammered nine sixes and single-handedly took Shivamogga Lions close to a win. But the target was too large and they fell short by 29 runs in the end. Aneeshwar Gautam and Dhruv Prabhakar both played useful hands in this effort, but Joshi's heroic efforts ultimately proved unsuccessful.
Shivamogga Lions Expected Playing 11
Dhruv Prabhakar, Nihal Ullal (c & wk), Hardik Raj, Rohit Kumar K, Aneeshwar Gautam, Aniruddha Joshi, Avinash D, Bharath Dhuri, Vasuki Koushik, Vidhwath Kaverappa, Anand Doddamani.
MD vs SL Toss Prediction
If you look at the record for teams playing T20 games at this venue, you will find the teams chasing a target have won more games. The team batting initially will look to raise a score of over 170 runs at this ground to feel safe. Therefore, winning the toss and fielding first will be the order of the day for the skippers.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
This track just saw a team batting first score over 200 runs. The opposition responded by coming close to the target. So, this pitch is full of runs. But hitting big shots will progressively become difficult as the wicket loses its pace. There is a clear possibility of showers coming down during the game. The temperature during the contest will remain close to 28 degrees.
