Hubli Tigers HT will face Shivamogga Lions SL in Match No. 3 of the Maharaja Trophy 2025 at the Srikantadatta Narasimha Raja Wadeyar Ground in Mysore, on Tuesday, August 12.

The Hubli Tigers, who finished third in the 2024 edition, fell short in the semi-finals against Mysore Warriors. This season, they will aim to maintain their momentum and go one step further to clinch the title. Their squad features key names such as Devdutt Padikkal and KC Cariappa. Hard-hitting batter Abhinav Manohar is also a notable inclusion.

Shivamogga Lions, on the other hand, ended last year's campaign in fifth place with three wins. Determined to improve, they will look to start the new season on a stronger note and put up a more consistent performance. A fresh season will give them the opportunity to start things afresh, and first hurdle in that will be their face-off on Tuesday.

Probable Best Performers of the Match

Hubli Tigers' top-order batter Devdutt Padikkal could prove to be the key player in the upcoming clash. In the 2024 edition, he scored 253 runs across 11 matches, a steady contribution, though without any particularly big innings. However, if the left-hander finds his rhythm early in this campaign, he has the ability to dominate and lead the team to victory.

The right-arm leg-spinner KC Cariappa could be the key bowler for Hubli Tigers in the opening clash. He took 10 wickets last season, and his four-over spells will be crucial in controlling the game. Cariappa's ability to tighten the screws on the opposition and restrict their scoring rate could prove decisive.
