SS vs MPT, BCL T20 2024 Preview
The Southern Spartans team, led by CSK legend Suresh Raina, has registered two wins from its four league fixtures so far to occupy third position on the Big Cricket League 2024 points table. The Spartans recently trounced Mumbai Marines by 52 runs after amassing 232-1 upfront.
Opener Phil Mustard clattered 140 unbeaten runs in the high-scoring innings from just 69 balls, while captain Raina smeared a 30-ball 62* with six boundaries and three sixes. Incidentally, Mustard and Raina have also emerged as two of the most prolific run-makers among all Spartans players this season. With the ball, Abhishek Sakuja has taken the most wickets with five scalps.
The MP Tigers cricket team is yet to lose a single game this BCL 2024 season, having registered three emphatic wins in a row to claim the top spot on the six-team points table. Yusuf Pathan and co. defeated Rajasthan Regals, UP Brij Stars and Northern Challengers in successive games and are holding a formidable NRR of 2.617.
Much of the success of the MP Tigers can be attributed to the blistering form of prolific batters like Saket Sharma, Naman Ojha, Pawan Negi and captain Pathan himself. Faizal A, on the other hand, has successfully helmed MP Tigers’ bowling attack with five wickets in just three innings.
