Aakash Tigers and Eagle Thane Strikers return to action in Match 6 of the T20 Mumbai League at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in India’s financial capital. Both sides come into the game on the back of contrasting results in their opening fixture.
Aakash Tigers played the Maratha Royals in their previous fixture, which went to a Super Over after both sides scored 165 from their 20 overs. Unfortunately for ATMWS, they ended up on the losing side.
Eagle Thane Strikers, on the other hand, secured a victory in their first game of the new season, beating the Bandra Blasters by nine wickets. The victory was mainly down to Sumeir Zaveri and Shashwat Jagtap, who forged a 155-run opening partnership to put their side in the driver’s seat.

Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai: Pitch Report
The pitch at the Wankhede Stadium is known for being batting-friendly. However, the bowlers are never completely taken out of the game, thanks to the swing on offer with the new ball. Despite that, fans in attendance can expect a plethora of boundaries thanks to the stadium’s smaller dimensions. Batters can target the shorter boundaries to help them score runs at a quick rate.
