A win in three matches. The equation for both, Bengal and Mumbai remains the same; win and gain crucial points or lose and perish a slow death. With a poor performance from their batsmen, the teams haven’t been able to bring their best out on the field.
The encounter at KCA Cricket Ground, Mangalapuram, Trivandrum is expected to be a batter’s pitch where both the teams would expect to get the most out of the track and score some necessary runs.
For Mumbai, opener Yashasvi Jaiswal would like to extend his fiery form from his 61-run innings against Karnataka along with a captain knock from Shams Mulani and Suryakumar Yadav.
Meanwhile, Bengal bowlers would look forward binding the explosive Mumbai batting lineup from building partnerships by striking at regular intervals.
Expected XI (Mumbai)
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Armaan Jaffer, Suryakumar Yadav , Shams Mulani (c), Hardik Tamore (wk), Shivam Dube, Sairaj Patil, Tanush Kotian, Dhawal Kulkarni, Mohit Avasthi, P H Solanki
Expected XI (Bengal)
Shreevats Goswami (wk), Abhisek Das, Writtick Chatterjee, Sudip Chatterjee (c), Kaif Ahmad, Ritwik Chowdhury, Shahbaz Ahmed, Sumanta Gupta, Pradipta Pramanik, Akash Deep, Mukesh Kumar
