Gulbarga Mystics suffered a crushing loss by 54 runs against Bengaluru Blasters in their opening game. After conceding 189 runs in their bowling innings, the team was bowled out for a mere 135. Despite having a stellar batting line-up, including players like Devdutt Padikkal, Manish Pandey, and Karthik CA, this was not a performance that was expected from them.
Meanwhile, Shivamogga Strikers also suffered a massive loss in their opening game. Chasing 172, the team was bowled out for a mere 91. Both teams need to work on their batting if they have to make an impact in the tournament.
The wicket should be slightly damp, and batting won’t be the easiest task. Batters will need to get use to the pace and bounce before trying to play their shots.
The weather will be clear with very little chance of rain. The temperature will hover around early 20s which will be pleasing for the players,
Devdutt Padikkal, Codanda Ajit Karthik, Manish Pandey (c), KL Shrijith, Bangalore Mohith, Kruthik Krishna (wk), Manoj Bhandage, Ritesh Bhatkal, Pranav Bhatia, Abhilash Shetty, Vidhwath Kaverappa
Rohan Kadam, Krishnamurthy Siddharth, Vinay Sagar (wk), Stallin Hoover, Avinash D, Krishnappa Gowtham (c), Rajvir Wadhwa, KC Cariappa, MB Darshan, Smaran R, Utham Aiyappa
Despite ordinary performances in the last game, both teams should stick to the same combination for the coming game.

Devdutt Padikkal had an off day against Bengaluru Blasters, but there is no doubt about the class he possess. He is a quality player and has proved his credentials at big stage like IPL. He will be keen to do well in the coming game.
Manish Pandey has been left out from the India team after inconsistent performance. However, he will know that a good show here can get him back into the contention. He might not get a call back before the T20 World up but he needs to continue performing and make it hard for selectors to ignore him.
He is also a good selection due to his all-round skills. Given the conditions, he is a valuable addition to the team as he can pick quite a few wickets on this surface. Also he can score some handy runs for the team.
He is also a good all-rounder to have. He opens the inning for his team thus gets the best conditions to bat. Also he will bowl 3-4 overs thus he can give us fantasy points both ways on a good day.
KC Cariappa is a reputed name in domestic cricket. He has been doing well for his teams for quite a while now and has played for teams like KKR and PBKS. He also had a good season of Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
