Match Prediction

GUY have suffered a strong blow as Imran Tahir has been ruled out of the game. The bowling guild seems to be weak without the spinner and it is tough to get another player to step into his big shoes. On the other hand, TKR performed well with the ball and also has a robust bowling attack, which gives them an edge.
