UF vs MS: Probable Best Performers of the Match

Probable Best Batter: Ashutosh Sharma

Ashutosh Sharma, who is the captain of the side, batted at No. 7 in the last game and scored just one run off four balls. He is too good a batter to be coming in at No. 7. In the Indian Premier League, he plays the role of a finisher which comes naturally to him. However, in MPL, he has to take more responsibility. If he bats higher up the order, Ashutosh could be the batter to watch out for.

Probable Best Bowler: Madhav Tiwari

Madhav Tiwari had a dream of a time in the last game. He scored an unbeaten 62 off 31 balls and followed it up by dismissing Kuldeep Gehi in the first over. Tiwari returned at the back end of the innings and dismissed Akash Raghuwanshi to end the match. The seam-bowling all-rounder will want to continue this form which he has carried into this tournament after an impressive IPL campaign.
