Bhopal Leopards vs Bundelkhand Bulls, MPL, Today Match Prediction 15 June 2025

BL vs BBS Match Prediction & Analysis

All eyes will be on Abhishek Pathak as Bundelkhand Bulls take on Bhopal Leopards in the 7th match of the Madhya Pradesh League 2025. The opening batsman was part of the title-winning Jabalpur Lions last year. Pathak scored an unbeaten 142-run knock in the Final, as the Lions posted 249 runs batting first.

Leopards have Yash Dubey at the top with great potential. He will be the key performer for Bhopal to watch out for. Like the Bulls, they too suffered a batting collapse in their last outing.

On a batting-friendly wicket, the Bhopal Leopards were 6 down for 130 runs after 16 Overs when rain stopped play. Skipper Arshad Khan, a left-arm pacer, will be hoping for a quick comeback from his batters.

Shivang Kumar and Harsh Dixit will be expected to come good in the top order to lead this comeback from the Leopards. Bundelkhand Bulls have a promising bowler in Priyanshu Shukla, who will be one to watch out for in this game.

TEAMS PREVIEW

Bhopal Leopards Preview

Bhopal Leopards’ opening game ended without a result due to the rain. They were nowhere in the contest with the performance they put with the bat in the first innings. They kept losing regular wickets and were 6 down for 106 runs after 14 Overs.

Things had just started to take off in the death overs with the Leopards adding 24 runs in the next two overs when rain stopped play. There is some positive to take from that game for the Leopards, namely, their batting depth.

Nevertheless, the top order of Yash Dubey, Shivang Kumar, and Harsh Dixit needs to deliver some good partnerships to set the stage for a big finish. Aniket Verma and Goutam Raghuvanshi are also quite promising in the middle order.

Skipper Arshad Khan will lead the bowling attack for Bhopal Leopards along with Akshay Singh. In the spin department, the right-arm offbreak bowler Kamal Tripathi will hold the key to success.

Bundelkhand Bulls Preview

Bundelkhand Bulls were beaten in their opening game while chasing an 88-run target in 6 Overs. Only the skipper Harsh Gawli scored double digits in the top 5, as he scored 10 off 13 balls.

The pressure was surely a lot more in such a game, and mistakes are expected. We aren’t counting the Bulls out yet. They can surely make a comeback with a strong batting performance in this match.

They have Abhishek Pathak opening the innings alongside the skipper. Pathak was the star performer for the defending champions last season. He was consistent and delivered highly impactful knocks for the Lions.

Abhishek Mavi and Divyanshu Yadav hold the key to strong partnerships in the middle-order. Their performances can make or break the game for Bundelkhand Bulls as they hold key positions in the batting order.

In the bowling department, Priyanshu Shukla, the right-arm medium pacer who picked 3 for 18 in 2 Overs in the last game, will be one to watch out for.

The 20-year-old left-arm orthodox bowler Saumy Pandey is the key spin bowler in the side who was very expensive against the Rewa Jaguars, but can be expected to come good in this match.

Bundelkhand Bulls Predicted Playing XI:

Harsh Gawali (c & wk), Abhishek Pathak, Karan Tahliyani, Shantanu Raghuvanshi, Abhishekh Mavi, Gautam Joshi, Aman Yadav, Divyanshu Yadav, Saumy Pandey, Shubham Kaithwas, Priyanshu Shukla

Bundelkhand Bulls Actual Playing XI:

Harsh Gawli, Abhishek Pathak, Saumy Kumar Pandey, Shantanu Raghuvanshi, Abhisekh Mavi, Shubham Kaithwas, Aryan Tiwari, Vivek Sharma, Priyanshu Mishra Shukla, Karan Tahliyani, Divyanshu Yadav

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

It will be partly cloudy in Gwalior with a high of 39 degrees Celsius around the match time. There are no signs of rain, but the overcast conditions could help the new-ball bowlers early on in the match.

BL vs BBS Pitch Report

It has been a batting-friendly venue last year with plenty of high-scoring thrillers. However, this season, the pitch has seemed to be more evenly poised, with the bowlers also finding help from significant help from the surface. The average 1st innings score in the last 5 matches is 219 runs. We reckon anything around the 190-200-run mark will be a competitive total in this game.

Total Over/Under Betting Tips

Toss: To Bat

There is enough on offer for the batters at this venue in Gwalior. Nevertheless, chasing down a competitive total will not be easy for any side. They haven’t got quality finishers in the lineup, and hence, batting first and having runs on the board will always be a great strategy. Moreover, the teams batting first have won 3 of the last 5 matches played at the venue.
