Triumph Knights Mumbai North East

A poor batting performance after being put into bat was the chief reason behind the defeat of the Triumph Knights against the SoBo SuperSonics. None of their players could capitalize on starts and it was only Karan More who scored a quick 55 towards the end of the inning to be able to get his side to a big total.

Suryakumar Yadav had got himself set and it looked like he was in the perfect position to take advantage of the death overs but he also got out just when the time to accelerate had arrived. Two poor batting performances are going to create a little panic in the Triumph Knights camp.

Players like Karan Shah, Shikhar Thakur, and Sumit Ghadigaonkar are either not getting set or throwing away their wickets. The side cannot afford to be dependent on Suryakumar Yadav in every single match.

The bowling was much better and actually did a fine job against the strong batting side of SoBo SuperSonics. Prasad Patil picked up two wickets, Royston Dias picked up three wickets, an almost all the bowlers were economical.

Akash Parkar and Kalpesh Sawant were unable to keep their heads in a pressure situation and that eventually ended up being the difference. Now, up against the Eagle Thane Strikers, the Triumph Knights will need to bat better and hope that their bowlers maintain the same intensity.

Eagle Thane Strikers

The victory in the previous match was a pretty easy one all things considered. The Eagle Thane Strikers were never tested against the Aakash Tigers. A target of 137is never going to be a problem for most of these sides and the Eagle Thane Strikers certainly have a strong batting lineup as well.

The batting is led by skipper Aditya Tare and Sarfaraz Khan. Both of these players are IPL veterans and are expected to dominate at this level. Tare followed up his 71 in the opening match of the tournament with a fluent 57.

The bowling was not of the highest order and Tare did not look tested. Sarfaraz Khan also made an unbeaten 57 and had a good partnership with Tare. It was only a mix-up between them that caused a runout in which Aditya Tare lost his wicket.

A little more from the bat is needed from Sachin Wagh and Kaushik Chikhalikar. There also does not seem to be too much batting behind Sarafarz Khan in this team.

The bowling was quite energetic to start with and had some bright spots. Kruthik Hanagavadi, Prashant Bhoir, and Sagar Mishra led the initial attack while Ankush Jaiswal bowled accurate spin to end up with three wickets.

The Eagle Thane Strikers are a well-balanced side on paper. Their only concern would be the dependence on Aditya Tare and Sarfaraz Khan for the bulk of their runs. If the other batsmen start performing then this current bowling lineup is good enough to win them a lot many more games in T20 Mumbai 2019.

Pitch and Conditions

Triumph Knights vs Eagle Thane Strikers T20 Mumbai 2019 match is going to be played at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. This is once again an afternoon match and you can expect the pitch to play a little slower than it does in the evening. This means that the spinners are going to be in the game and power hitting will be more difficult.

We think a score of around 160 is going to be quite difficult to chase down.

MNETK vs ETS Dream11 Prediction

Taking part in Dream11 contests during T20 Mumbai 2019 has been quite profitable for us so far! We hope you have had the same experience. Let us take a look at the possible options we have at our disposal for Triumph Knights vs Eagle Thane Strikers Dream 11 team combination.

Wicketkeeper: Aditya Tare and Sumit Ghadigaonkar are the two main options that we have to look at in this category. With two fifties from two matches, a top-order batting slot, and plenty of top-level T20 experience, we think picking Aditya Tare is the obvious move. his wicketkeeping skills also seem to have improved as could be seen by the magnificent catch he took in the previous match.

Batsmen: We have picked the maximum of five batsmen in our Dream 11 team thanks to some good options being available. Suryakumar Yadav and Sarafraz Khan are obvious candidates with Sachin Wagh, Kaushik Chikalikhar, and Shikhar Thakur the other three players on our radar. Neither of these last three has done anything noteworthy in T20 Mumbai 2019 and we are hoping that will change. Shikhar Thakur is someone in particular that we think has the capability to leave a mark in this competition.

All-rounders: We have picked just one player in this category, Sagar Mishra. He bats in the middle order for the Eagle thane Strikers and bowls regularly as well. Akash Parkar was the other tempting option in this category but his performance in the last match was really disappointing.

Bowlers: Having Shardul Thakur available for this competition is a huge plus. He is on the fringes of the Indian team selection and is brilliant at the death. his pace is also something more than what a lot of the youngsters would have faced up until now. We have picked Ankush Jaiswal, Royston Dias, and Prasad Patil as the other three bowlers alongside Shardul Thakur.

All three of these youngsters have been in the wickets and will definitely get opportunities to continue bowling at crucial stages of the game.

Captain and Vice-Captain: We have picked Aditya tare as captain and Suryakumar Yadav as vice-captain for this match. Picking Shardul Thakur may also be a good option especially if the Eagle Thane Strikers bowl first.
