Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 2026: Match 4, KBB vs SMY Match Prediction – Who will win today’s match between KBB vs SMY?

The Kalyani Bengaluru Blasters (KBB) will take on the Shivamogga Yodhas (SMY) in Match No. 4 of the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 2026 at the Srikantadatta Narasimha Raja Wadeyar Ground in Mysore on Sunday, June 21.

The Yodhas finished at the bottom of the table in the 2025 season, managing just three points from 10 games. They will be hoping that new colours and new appearances will bring them newer fortunes. They are boosted by a solid young domestic core, which includes players like Smaran Ravichandran, Luvnith Sisodia and Dhanush Gowda.

The Blasters are the only team, along with the Yodhas, to have not lifted the trophy. They were beaten by eventual winners Mangaluru in the final of the 2025 season and will be aiming to go one step further in the 2026 season.
