Pitch Report
The Chinnaswamy deck is still a paradise for the batters but the bowlers have contributed significantly as well. The powerplay will be crucial and either team would prefer to chase, despite it being the final. Batting first, if a team scores over 170 runs, it would be difficult for the chasing team.

Probable Best Performers from BB vs MW
Probable Best Batter: Karun Nair
Mysore Warriors captain Karun Nair is in spectacular form in the ongoing edition of the Maharaja T20 League. He has smashed 494 runs in 11 matches at a strike rate of 187.12 and is the second-leading run-scorer of the tournament. He has led from the front and will be hoping to keep up with the form and help his team win the title this time around.
Probable Best Bowler: Lavish Kaushal
Lavish Kaushal has picked up 16 wickets in 10 matches so far in the league. He has been Mayank Agarwal’s go-to option with the ball and the pacer has done justice to the faith his captain has shown in him. If he keeps up with the form, Mysore can have a tough time in the final.
