Players to Watch
Shivamogga Yodhas Key Players
Luvnith Sisodia
The captain has led from the front all season with 364 runs at a strike rate of 162.50. If he survives the early spell from Koushik, he has the ability to take the game away from Mangaluru on his own.
Abhilash Shetty
Shetty has been a revelation with 17 wickets in just 9 matches. His left arm angle and change of pace have troubled the best batters, and his economy in the Eliminator highlighted his control in big moments.
Tushar Singh
Singh proved his value with a match winning 53 in the Eliminator against Mysore Warriors. Batting at the top, he balances Sisodia’s aggression with calculated stroke play.
Coastal Kings Mangaluru Key Players
Nikin Jose
Jose has scored 324 runs this season and anchors the innings well, allowing the power hitters around him to play freely. His wicket is a prized one for the Shivamogga bowlers.
Suraj Ahuja
Ahuja is in red hot form after an unbeaten 52 off 29 balls in Qualifier 1. Striking at a tournament high 187.77, he is a genuine threat during the death overs.
Vasuki Koushik
Koushik is considered the most consistent seam bowler in the Mangaluru squad, with 13 wickets this season. His new ball control regularly puts pressure on opposition top orders.
