Karnataka has done well in the past under the leadership of Manish Pandey.
Preview:
Indian domestic cricket’s biggest arch-rivals, Karnataka and Mumbai will clash in the Elite Group B match of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2021. Two-time champions Karnataka ended their tournament journey in the Quarter-Final stages last year. Star campaigners Manish Pandey and Mayank Agarwal have been included in the squad, which gives plenty of boost for the side.
Mumbai, on the other hand, needs to forget what has happened earlier last year. With only a solitary win, they finished last in the Elite Group E standings with 4 points. Ajinkya Rahane will lead the side this year and Prithvi Shaw will be his deputy. They have a 1–3 win-loss record against Karnataka in their last 4 meetings. Both sides are looking extremely strong on the paper, and it will be interesting who will come out on top.
