Pitch Report

As has been the case through the Mysore leg, Thursday's Eliminator also saw a lot of runs being scored. There will be no change in that unless the weather gods change their script.


Fantasy Tips and Suggestions

Wicket-keeper: The wicket-keeper for this match will be KB Pawan. The experienced Hubli player is coming off an unbeaten 56 in the Eliminator against Shivamogga.

Batsmen: The three batsmen for this game will be Mohammad Taha, Ravikumar Samarth and Abhinav Manohar.

Mohammad Taha, the opening batsman for Hubli, can be trusted upon to get his side off to a good start. After scoring a quickfire 41 in the match against Shivamogga, Taha's run tally for this season has risen 190 runs from seven matches.

R Samarth has comparatively had an average tournament. Apart from a lone fifty against Bijapur Bulls, Samarth hasn't showcased his full potential till now. The all-important Qualifier 2 might just be the stage to get his second fifty.

Abhinav Manohar is not only the most underrated batsman among this trio but also the entire league. The middle-order batsman has gone under the radar but hasn't failed when it comes to performances. In the Qualifier 1, Abhinav scored a superb 62 off 39 balls in a losing cause.

All-rounders: There are a lot of quality players in this section and that will need us to pick four all-rounders.

Hubli skipper Vinay Kumar is an easy choice to start off. Even though he hasn't bowled a lot in this tournament, Vinay has consistently promoted himself and done well with the bat. In the last fixture, he came up with an important 55-run knock.

Similarly, Praveen Dubey has been consistent with the bat this year. Until now, Dubey has scored 182 runs in seven matches.

On the bowling front. Aditya Somanna has been superb for Hubli. He is the third-highest wicket-taker with 10 wickets this season.

The final all-rounder will be Belagavi's Stalin Hoover. Apart from scoring 183 runs, Hoover has also picked up three wickets.

Bowlers: D Avinash, MB Darshan and Mithrakanth Yadav will be the three picks for this encounter.

D Avinash and Darshan have been exceptional for Belagavi with their intelligent medium-pace bowling while Mithrakanth Yadav has done exceedingly well for Hubli by picking up 10 wickets so far. Mithrakanth is also the second-highest wicket-taker at this point.

Captain: Mohammad Taha will be the captain while Stalin Hoover will be a good pick for vice-captaincy. Alternate choices for captaincy will include Vinay Kumar, Shreyas Gopal and Abhinav Manohar.

Fantasy Suggestion #1: KB Pawan, Mohammad Taha (C), R Samarth, Abhinav Manohar, Vinay Kumar, Stalin Hoover (VC), Praveen Dubey, Aditya Somanna, Mithrakanth Yadav, D Avinash, MB Darshan.

Fantasy Suggestion #2: KB Pawan, Luvnith Sisodia, Mohammad Taha, R Samarth, Abhinav Manohar, Vinay Kumar (C), Stalin Hoover, Aditya Somanna, Mithrakanth Yadav, D Avinash, Shreyas Gopal (VC).
