Manipal Tigers vs Gujarat Giants Match Pitch Report
The JSCA Stadium pitch is usually a good batting surface, but it is not a batting paradise. Slow bowlers and spinners get a little help as the ball tends to grip and hit the bat a bit slower than usual. This makes the hitting game a bit more difficult. A total of 7 T20I matches have been played at the ground, with the team batting first winning 3 times, while the chasing team won on four occasions.
What to expect:
Team news:
Manipal Tigers: Harbhajan Singh will lead the Manipal Tigers this year too and will have plenty of talents at his disposal to make a winning start to the competition.
For starters, there is Mohammad Kaif. The stylish Indian batter was the leading run-getter of the team last season, with 222 runs in 7 innings at an average of 44.40 and a strike rate of 115.62. Kaif will be the batting mainstay for the Tigers this season, too.
The Tigers have also roped in Robin Uthappa and Colin de Grandhomme this time, which will bolster their batting unit considerably. Uthappa is expected to open the innings and give the team quick starts, while Grandhomme will take on the bowling in the lower middle order.
They also have the hard-hitting Corey Anderson, who is known to blaze away when he is on song. He is also a more than decent medium pacer and is expected to deliver at least two to three overs in the middle.
Harbhajan will, of course, be a vital part of the team’s bowling. The experienced Praveen Kumar will be more than handy on this surface with his cutters and slower ones.

Gujarat Giants: Gujarat Giants were knocked out in the Eliminator last year against Bhilwara Kings. They managed just two wins from six games and would like to do better this time.
Captain Parthiv Patel underperformed last season with just 68 runs in 4 innings. A lot is expected from him this time.
The Giants will also hope that “Universe Boss” Chris Gayle fires for them. He may have retired from cricket, but Gayle can still be destructive, and if gets going, he will take the game away in a few overs.
Another batter to keep an eye out for is Kevin O’Brien. The hard-hitter from Ireland topped Gujarat’s batting charts last year with 203 runs in 6 innings at an average of 33.83 and, more importantly, at a strike rate of 166.
The Giants don’t have many exciting options in their bowling department this time. S. Sreesanth will lead this bowling unit, and a lot will depend on how his four overs go. Left-arm spinner Sulieman Benn is also worth keeping an eye out for.

Manipal Tigers vs Gujarat Giants Match Prediction
Both teams had a poor run last year and failed to reach the final. The teams will be looking for a better show this time around. On paper, the Gujarat Giants have a very strong and well-balanced team at their disposal as compared to the Manipal Tigers. Manipal Tigers are favorites for us.
We expect the Manipal Tigers to win this match.

Robin Uthappa, Corey Anderson, and Colin de Grandhomme can be backed to do well with the bat. When it comes to hitting abilities, the three are the best batters in the Manipal Tigers team.
Chris Gayle and Kevin O’Brien are two players who have been active cricketers recently, so one could expect the two to come out all guns blazing in the Legends League Cricket 2023. Captain Parthiv Patel can be a treat to watch on his day so expect some runs from him as well.

The bowling will rest on the shoulders of captain Harbhajan Singh. New Zealand pacer Mitchell McClenaghan can also be challenging to face along with veteran Praveen Kumar.
In the bowling department, Liam Plunkett, S Sreesanth and Dane Piedt are good bowling options and can find themselves among the wickets.
