The Bengaluru Blasters enter this contest as the favourites to win. After two consecutive losses the Blasters bounced back with a dominant five wicket victory over the Gulbarga Mystics in their last match. They currently stand at fourth place on the table with two points in three matches.
On the flip side, Shivamogga Lions lost both the matches played this season. In both the matches the Lions failed to chase down a target of 180-185 runs. The Lions lack a quality batting lineup which has led to their downfall this season.
