In this article we will be analyzing the IC vs MNT Match Prediction. India Capitals (IC) will lock horns with the Manipal Tigers (MNT) in match No. 20 of the ongoing Legends League Cricket (LLC) 2024 on Thursday, October 10, at the Bakshi Stadium in Srinagar.
Ian Bell’s Capitals are currently in the third position on the points table, having won two and lost two out of the six matches they’ve played so far. Two of their matches were abandoned due to rain. Capitals are coming off a win against Gujarat Greats. With the upcoming game being their last group-stage game, the side will be hoping to confirm their qualifier’s birth for the second time in a row.
Meanwhile, the Manipal Tigers are sitting just above the Capitals in the points table and have held on to the second spot with seven points under their belt. The defending champions have won just two games and have lost two matches due to rain. Though they have already put one foot in the knockout stage, the side will once again look to come hard at their opponent. Interstingly, their first encounter in this tournament was washed out due to rain and both will take on each other for the first time in this season.
