Bengaluru Blasters have been terrific in the tournament. They have played seven games and won five of them. They are coming off a win over Shivamogga Strikers in the last game. Batting first, they posted a score of 191-6 in 20 overs, courtesy of a century by LR Chethan and later defended the target by restricting Strikers to 166-8 and winning the game by 25 runs.
Meanwhile, Gulbarga Mystics have played six games, winning three and losing as many. They have lost the last two games and thus need a win to get into contention for a playoff spot.
The previous game on the surface was a high-scoring game. Not a lot will change in a span of 24 hours thus once again a good batting surface will be on offer for the teams.
The weather will be slightly cloudy and there is a small 10 per cent chance of rain. The temperature will range between 19 to 29 degrees.

Mayank Agarwal has been in top form this season. He is the highest run scorer of the tournament with 297 runs in seven games. He is a good bet for the skipper of the fantasy team.
He too has been in good form throughout the season and has scored 239 runs in just 5 games at an average of over 70. He is a very good pick for the team.
Chethan scored a magnificent century in the last game. He scored 105 runs in just 55 deliveries and helped his team post a big score. He is the second highest run-scorer for the team and has scored 241 runs in 7 games.
Karthik is a good all-rounder to have. He is a decent batter in the middle order and one of the premium bowlers for the team. On a good day, he will fetch many fantasy points.
He took four wickets for 28 runs in the last over. He has been very consistent in the tournament and has taken 10 wickets in 6 games. He is a good bowler to select.
