BB vs HT: Team Previews
Bengaluru Blasters
Bengaluru Blasters had a rough start, taking a six-wicket hit from Gulbarga Mystics in their opener. After putting to bat first, Blasters could only manage 137 runs with the loss of six wickets in their 20 overs, but Gulbarga Mystics breezed through, chasing it down in just 17.3 overs. They will be looking to bounce back stronger in the tournament.
Hubli Tigers
On the other hand, Hubli Tigers are on a roll, scoring back-to-back wins in the tournament. They knocked out Mysore Warriors by nine wickets in their tournament opener in a rain-interrupted game and followed it up with a solid seven-wicket win over Gulbarga Mystics. They are currently sitting at the top of the points table and must be looking to extend their winning streak in the tournament.
