NMP vs SOBS Match Prediction & Betting Tips - May 26, 2019
The final of T20 Mumbai 2019 is going to be played between the North Mumbai Panthers and the SoBo SUperSonics. We think no one is going to argue the fact that the two best teams of the tournament are meeting each other in this contest.
Both the teams played out exciting semi0finals and now will be eyeing the big prize. This will be the first time that the SoBo SUperSOnics are playing against the North Mumbai Panthers in T20 2019.
The match is going to be played at the Wankhede where all the previous matches have been held. The pitches have been quite good for batting and not slowed up as much as expected. Hopefully, another high scoring encounter lies in wait for the T20 Mumbai 2019 final.
NMP vs SOBS Team Previews
North Mumbai Panthers
The North Mumbai Panthers won their semi-final off the very last ball of the semi-final. They were chasing 167 and were powered by a brilliant inning from Prithvi Shaw. 76 from Shaw and 62 from Swapnil Salvi had seemed to put the match beyond doubt but a flurry of wickets meant that Pravin Tambe had to score one run off the very last delivery of the match.
He managed to get a boundary and win the match for the North Mumbai Panthers but there is no doubt that the side will want to avoid a repeat of the previous match.
The Panthers will be hoping that Prithvi Shaw can recreate the magic with his at once again in this match. Vikrant Auti and Sairaj Patil missed out on runs in the semi-final but they have been in very good form as well.
With Swapnil Salvi scoring runs and a couple of other good players like Karan Nade and SUmmet Dhekale in the side, the North Mumbai Panthers have a very decent batting lineup. The biggest problem for them has been losing wickets in clumps and they would want to avoid that in the final.
The bowling unit had a better day in the semi-final than in previous matches. Prathamesh Dake took three wickets while the senior pro, Pravin Tambe, was also back to his accurate best.
Tambe bowled a little slower than he has been in the matches leading up to the semi-final and immediately got more response from the pitch. These two, along with Atif Attarwala are going to be the bowlers to watch out for in this match.
North Mumbai Panthers Playing 11
Prithvi Shaw, Vikrant Vilas Auti, Karan Dattatray Nande, Swapnil Salvi, Sairaj Patil, Shashikant Kadam, Sumeet Dhekale, Atif Attarwala, Pravin Tambe, Prathamesh Dake, Rahul Sawant.
SOBO SuperSonics
We had been hearing about the batting potential of the SoBo SuperSonics throughout this tournament but we got a real taste of what is possible in the semi-final. Batting first, Jay Bista and his men posted a massive total of 217 for the loss of four wickets.
Bista scored 110, Hersh Tank scored 93 and their opening partnership of 195 put the match beyond the grasp of the Aakash Tigers.
Some very useful batsmen like Rohan Raje, Dhrumil Matkar, Parag Khanapurar, and Yogesh Takawale are also in good form. They did not have much opportunity to do anything in the semi-final but will be waiting for their turn to bat in the final.
The SoBo SuperSonics do not have a massive superstar like Prithvi Shaw but this young side has shown it does not take a backward step.
For the final, we are once again looking at Jay Bista and Hersh Tank to lead the way with the bat. They have form on their side and are up against a relatively weak bowling attack.
The bowling of the SoBo SuperSonics themselves is better than the North Mumbai Panthers. We are very impressed by Badrey Alam, Deepak Shetty, and Dhrumil Matkar in the tournament so far. Dhrumul Matkar took five wickets with some brilliant left-arm spin and our belief in his abilities grows stronger with every match.
With players like Rohan Raje, Vaibhav Mali, and Khizer Dafedar to chip in as well, the bowling attack of the SoBo SuperSonics is very competent.
SOBO SuperSonics Playing 11
Jay Gokul Bista, Hersh Tank, Parag Khanapurkar, YV Takawale, Khizer Dafedar, Dhrumil Matkar, Rohan Raje, Shashank Attarde, Japjeet Randhawa, Deepak Shetty, Badre Alam.

Pitch and Conditions
North Mumbai Panthers vs SoBo SuperSonics T20 Mumbai 2019 final is going to be played at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. The weather has been very good for cricket and we should have nothing to worry about for the final as well.
The pitch has been better for batting than expected and the credit must go to the groundstaff for ensuring good batting wickets. Another decent batting pitch with 160 being the par score is expected.
NMP vs SOBS Dream11 Prediction
Dream 11 team for North Mumbai Panthers vs SoBo SuperSonics is going to be made with new Dream 11 rules in place. Now, players have the option of picking more than one wicket-keeper and up to four all-rounders. This gives much more flexibility to make the team. We always try and maximize the number of all-rounders in our side at this level of the game and that is going to be the effort while making this Dream 11 team as well.
Wicketkeeper: Picking more than one wicketkeeper is a good idea in theory because they get the maximum possible catches and are involved in run-outs as well. If the wicketkeepers can bat well then it would be a no-brainer. That extra wicketkeeper though comes at the cost of an all-rounder. We have decided to pick just Swapnil Salvi from the available options because the all-round options are more compelling.
Batsmen: We have not picked Prithvi Shaw in this match. He scored runs in the previous game and is going to be the most popular pick in this match. We have a feeling he could be due for a failure and are taking the risk of not picking him which will help differentiate our side in bigger contests. We have picked Vikram Auti, Jay Bista, and Hersh Tank in this category instead.
Bista and Tank are in great form while Auti has been one of the highest scorers for the North Mumbai Panthers this season.
All-rounders: We have picked the maximum of four all-rounders in our side so that we always have some players scoring points at all moments in the game. Sairaj Patil, Atif Attarwala, Dhrumil Matkar, and Parag Khanapurkar are the four all-rounders we have selected.
All four of the players are in good form and play a leading role with either the bat or the ball.
Bowlers: Pravin Tambe, S Attarde, and Rahul Sawant are the three bowlers we have finalized for our Dream 11 team. Tambe was bowling much better in the previous match and that is a good sign coming into this match while Attarde and Sawant have been in the wickets this season.
Captain and Vice-Captain: We have picked Vikram Auti as the vice-captain and Hersh Tank as the captain for this match.
