BLB vs SMS Betting Tips
- Mayank Agarwal scored 47 runs from 27 balls on Monday and hit a century when these sides last met. He is our tip for Bengaluru Blasters’ highest run scorer. With the ball, Rishi Bopanna took 3-26 against Mangalore United and his off-spin bowling should suit this surface.
- Opener BR Sharath scored his second half-century in three games in Sunday’s win over Mysore Warriors. The 25 year old keeper-batter is our pick for Shivamogga Strikers' highest run scorer in this fixture. Off-spinner Krishnappa Gowtham took 2-22 against the Warriors and he is well worth backing as the Strikers’ top wicket taker on this spin friendly pitch.
- As a current Indian international, it is perhaps not a huge surprise to see Mayank Agarwal flourishing in this tournament. We recommend backing him to score over 28.5 runs.

BB vs SS Match Toss Prediction
With a genuine threat of rain from halfway through the game. The captains may well choose to bat first so that there are no interruptions or momentum stops when batting.
BB vs SS Pitch Report
The surface in Bengaluru has been known to be two paced in previous games and could well offer some more assistance to the pace bowlers as the game progresses in humid conditions. It will spin from ball one.
Weather Report
Partly cloudy conditions will give way to scattered thunderstorms later in the evening in Bengaluru although they may come too late to halt this match.

BB Team News
The Blasters were able to name an unchanged side for their top of the table clash against Mangalore United and their consistency of selection paid dividends with the 66 run victory. No players have reported back with injuries after Match 17 and we expect the same XI to take the field in Bengaluru.

- Mayank Agarwal - The Indian international has an average of 59.20 from six innings in the tournament. He has only had one innings in which he has scored under 43 runs.

Shivamogga Strikers Team News & Playing 11
SS Team News
After chopping and changing their side, and reshuffling their batting order, across their first five games in Mysore, the Strikers kept faith with the XI from the previous match ahead of their win over the Warriors. Considering they have now found a winning formula, we do not expect any changes to the team on a pitch which will behave similarly.
SS Key Players
- BR Sharath - The right hander hit 53 runs from 35 balls in Sunday’s win over Mysore Warriors but also hit 51 against Bengaluru Blasters two days earlier.
- Krishnappa Gowtham - The captain has taken five wickets over the tournament with three coming over the last two games. His team will need him to pick up more wickets in this game if they are to register another win.
- Stalin Hoover - The batting all-rounder has chipped in with useful runs and key wickets during the competition. He hit 16 runs from 13 balls on Sunday.
SS Team Form
Managlore United had lost five successive games before they beat top of the table challengers Mysore Warriors on Sunday.

🏆 Bengaluru Blasters vs Shivamogga Strikers Prediction
Before this weekend, there would have been very little paragraph space or attention given to the chances of Shivamogga Strikers competing in this match. However, this tournament is producing some surprising results, none more so than the win for the Strikers over Mysore Warriors in Match 15 on Sunday. Bengaluru Blasters have a very strong batting line-up with Mayank Agarwal proving himself to be the most accomplished batter during the Mysore leg of the competition. We are predicting another win for Bengaluru Blasters.
