MT vs INDCAP Match Preview

Courtesy of winning two out of their three matches in the ongoing Legends League Cricket, Manipal Tigers are currently second on the points table. Even though they lost their last match to Southern Super Stars, the Harbhajan Singh-led side are in good form and will be confident before their match against India Capitals on December 2 in Visakhapatnam. The Capitals, on the other hand, are in a spot of bother. They lost their opening two matches and won the third one but their fourth match was called off due to wet outfield. The Gautam Gambhir-led side desperately needs points to stay in the race for playoffs and hence, their match against Manipal will hold a lot of value.

The surface at the Dr YSRR Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam is a bowlers’ nightmare. The track is expected to be quick and batters can play through the line and trust the bounce. Dew will play a huge role once again and hence, bowling first will be ideal.

MT vs INDCAP Probable Winners:

This season, the India Capitals have looked out of depth and have struggled to perform in almost every department. The batting has been inconsistent, and the bowling, with the exception of Udana and Theron, has not been particularly effective. The Manipal Tigers, on the other hand, have played well and are likely to win this match. Considering the team combination, India Capitals is expected to win this match.
