- Prana Bhatia – Bhatia did well with the ball and bowled a brilliant spell of 2-21. He will be a key figure for the team in the bowling department given that the pitch has favourited the spinners.

BB Team News
Blasters suffered a defeat in the first match but they are likely to play the same team in the upcoming match as the team would want to give the players a fair chance to express themselves.
BB Key Players
- Mayank Agarwal- Mayank Agarwal scored 496 runs last season but failed in the first game. However, he is the team’s best batter and runs are expected of him against Hubli Tigers.
- Pavan Deshpande – Pavan Deshpande had a top run in the 2022 season and scored 434 runs in 12 games. He could only score 14 in the first game and will be willing to play big innings in the next game.
- Shubhang Hegde – The spinner made full use of the helpful conditions and picked 3 wickets for 25 runs. He will be key for Blasters in Chinnaswamy again.
BB Team Form
The start has not been positive for Blasters but the team is good enough to make a strong comeback.
