TEAMS PREVIEW

Manipal Tigers Preview

Harbhajan Singh's team faces a massive challenge in this game. They started the season with a loss and had to share points in the last two games due to rain. The batting lineup looked rusty in the first game, and Singh would like a strong show from his players as they take on the table toppers. 

Solomon Mire and Robin Uthappa didn't score in the first game, and the team expects a strong start from the pair. The side will need a good show in the middle order from the experienced trio of Angelo Perera, Manoj Tiwary, and Saurabh Tiwary. Asela Gunaratne, Daniel Christian, and Obus Pienaar can hit the ball hard and add depth to the team's batting. 

Sheldon Cottrell and Anureet Singh looked good in the first game, and the team expects early wickets from the new-ball pair. Harbhajan Singh must lead by example and bowl well in the middle overs with Rahul Shukla. Daniel Christian and Obus Pienaar must put up a good show in the ing role. 

Manipal Tigers Predicted Playing XI:

Harbhajan Singh (c), Solomon Mire, Robin Uthappa (wk), Angelo Perera, Manoj Tiwary, Asela Gunaratne, Daniel Christian, Obus Pienaar, Anureet Singh, Rahul Shukla, Sheldon Cottrell, Saurabh Tiwary (Impact Player)

Manipal Tigers Actual Playing XI:

Robin Uthappa, Harbhajan Singh, Thisara Perera, Angelo Perera, Saurabh Tiwary, Sheldon Cottrell, Amit Verma, Anureet Singh, Asela Gunaratne, Daniel Christian, Rahul Shukla, Obus Pienaar

Southern Super Stars Preview

Shreevats Goswami led in the absence of Dinesh Karthik in the last game. It was an excellent show from the team against the Gujarat Greats, where they won by 8 wickets. The team has demolished their opponents in all games, and Goswami would like another good show to book a berth in the playoffs. 

Shreevats Goswami led from the front in the last game and will aim to deliver a strong start with Martin Guptill. Hamilton Masaka played a match-winning knock in the last game and will look to add runs in the middle order with Pawan Negi and Chathuranga de Silva. Chirag Gandhi and Jeevan Mendis add firepower to the batting lineup in the lower middle order. 

The bowling attack is in good form, and they expect early wickets from Hamid Hassan and Abdur Razzak. Pawan Negi has troubled the batters, and he must do well with Suboth Bhati. Chathuranga de Silva will look to bring his experience to play and do well in the ing role with Jesal Karia.

Southern Super Stars Predicted Playing XI:

Shreevats Goswami (c & wk), Martin Guptill, Pawan Negi, Chathuranga de Silva, Chirag Gandhi, Jeevan Mendis, Suboth Bhati, Jesal Karia, Abdur Razzak, Hamid Hassan, Elton Chigumbura, Hamilton Masakadza (Impact Player)

Abdur Razzak, Hamilton Masakadza, Martin Guptill, Elton Chigumbura, Chaturanga de Silva, Chirag Gandhi, Hamid Hassan, Jesal Karia, Monu Kumar, Pawan Negi, Shreevats Goswami, Suboth Bhati

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

All four games here have been washed away by rain, and the weather predictions aren't encouraging. The wicket has soaked in a lot of moisture due to the rain, which will be challenging for the batters. The side batting first would like to have 160 runs on the board. 

MT vs SNSS Pitch Report

Lalabhai Contractor Stadium, Surat, is a good wicket to bat on. Batsmen can play their strokes freely as the ball comes to the bat nicely. There isn't much on this track for the fast bowlers. Spinners can turn the ball and pose a challenge for the batsmen. 

Toss: To Bowl

The team chasing the score has won games in this tournament on most occasions. In a rain-curtailed game, the side chasing the score always has an advantage. The side winning the toss would look to bowl first.
