Match Details:
The 10th match of the Bengal T20 League will be played between East Bengal Club and Mohun Bagan Athletic Club at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata.
The match is scheduled to start at 04:00 PM IST. This match will be streamed live on FanCode.
Preview:
East Bengal Club will take on Mohun Bagan Athletic Club in the second game of the day. Tournament favorites, Mohun Bagan after winning the opening game have faltered in their next two games. And to add to their woes, their star player, Manoj Tiwari, is injured and might not be available for the next few games. The team needs to regroup and get back to winning ways.
East Bengal Club, too, hasn’t had the best of starts in the tournament. They have lost both of their games and are reeling at the bottom of the table. Their batsmen have failed to up a collective performance and provide them with good starts. The form of Shreevats Goswami is a concern for them. The wicket-keeper batsman would look to turn things around in this all-important match.
