KPL 2019 Qualifier 2 Match Prediction: Belagavi Panthers vs Hubli Tigers

The ongoing edition of the Karnataka Premier League (KPL) 2019 has reached the penultimate moment as Belagavi Panthers play Hubli Tigers in qualifiers 2 at Srikantadatta Narasimha Raja Ground in Mysore. The winner of this encounter will fix the final battle against Bellary Tuskers on Saturday. The Panthers went down to the table-toppers Tuskers in the first Qualifier. However, they get a second chance having finished 2nd in the table. 

Hubli Tigers came third during the league stage and managed to thump Shivamogga Lions by a 20-run margin in the Eliminator clash. The team now gear up to get better of the Panthers who miss the services of Manish Pandey who is currently leading India A side against South Africa for a five-match ODI series. The Tigers had success over Belagavi even when Manish was with his KPL side. Hubli defeated the Panthers in a thriller despite Pandey’s unbeaten century.

Weather Report:

Interestingly, Mysore has witnessed full 20-over encounters in the games hosted thus far. It isn’t doubt that the weather conditions got improved over the last week, especially in the evening. The venue could see a bit of rain but only in the afternoon. Everything is expected to be cleared by the scheduled start.
