Match Prediction For Shivamogga Lions vs Bellary Tuskers | Karnataka Premier League 2019 | KPL | SML vs BLARY

ABOUT THE MATCH

The two early pace-setters in the 2019 Karnataka Premier League meet in the final game of the first phase of fixtures at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore, on August 23.

Both Shivamogga Lions and Bellary Tuskers have won three games apiece, though the Lions go into this game still undefeated. The Tuskers, on the other hand, lost for the first time last time out.

It means the Tuskers need a win to get back on track, with a strong team – and IPL quality in the form of Krishnappa Gowtham and Prasidh Krishna. The Lions, however, have a big chance to pull clear at the top and have been in good batting form so far this season.

TOSS PREDICTION

The Tuskers won the toss last time out but lost on the VJD (V Jaya Devan) method. They are due to lose this toss then and Shivamogga Lions could field first on this occasion.

PITCH AND CONDITIONS

The weather throughout the week in Bangalore has been poor and it will be no different for this game – it is hot, humid and potentially very wet.

This is the final game of the first phase of fixtures at Bangalore. It is a well-used wicket and scores have not been as consistently high as they usually are.

PROBABLE PLAYING XI OF Shivamogga

Arjun Hoysala, Nihal Ullal (wk), Pavan Deshpande, HS Sharath, Mohanram Nidesh, K Rohit, Manjunath, Abhimanyu Mithun (c), Prithviraj Shekhawat, Rishabh Singh, T Pradeep

PROBABLE PLAYING XI OF Bellary Tuskers

Abhishek Reddy, Codanda Ajit Karthik, Devdutt Padikkal, Chidhambaram Gautam (c, wk), Krishnappa Gowtham, Zeeshan Ali, Abrar Kazi, Bhavesh Gulecha, Prasidh Krishna, KP Appanna, Vishnu Priyan

MATCH PREVIEW

Shivamogga

  • After a small break since their last game because of the fall of the fixtures, Shivamogga Lions could be unchanged for this match. That would mean K Rohit continuing in place of Akshay Ballal if so.
  • Shivamogga Lions have won three from three so far, beating Hubli Tigers by six wickets first up, chasing 155 to win, before a 14-run win against Mysuru Warriors defending 166/7. The Lions then made it three from three when they reached a revised 107 for the loss of just three wickets to beat Bengaluru Blasters.

Bellary Tuskers

  • KP Appanna was back last time out, with Suraj Reddy dropping back out. Srinivas Sharath replaced Vishnu Peiyan, meanwhile – that place is one of the few not yet settled in what has otherwise been a consistent line-up.
  • Shivamogga Lions have won three KPL 2019 matches from three so far, beating Hubli Tigers by six wickets first up, chasing 155 to win, before a 14-run win against Mysuru Warriors defending 166/7. The Lions then made it three from three when they reached a revised 107 for the loss of just three wickets to beat Bengaluru Blasters.

PROBABLE WINNING TEAM:

Shivamogga Lions have a strong team on paper and on the field. We feel they have a good chance to win the game.
