MPL 2025: Qualifier 1 & Eliminator Match Prediction – Who will win today’s MPL 2025 match?

Four teams will be in action in the ongoing Maharashtra Premier League 2025 on Friday, June 20, at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. After 30 league games, with 11 of them being washed out due to rain, the stage is set for Qualifier 1 and the Eliminator clashes of the ongoing third season of the marquee tournament.

The Qualifier 1 will take place in the afternoon between Eagle Nashik Titans (ENT) and Puneri Bappa (PB), as both teams look for a direct entry in the summit clash. The Titans finished at the top of the table with five wins and one loss in 10 matches, while the Pune-based team finished second with four wins, two losses, and four games ending without any results.

The action will then move at night for the Eliminator contest, with Raigad Royals (RAR) taking on Kolhapur Tuskers (KT). For the unversed, the winner of the clash will go on to play Qualifier 2, where the loser of the afternoon clash will take them on for a place in the Finale. It is worth noting that the Royals finished in third place in the standings with four wins and three losses in 10 matches. On the other hand, Kolhapur sits in fourth place with two wins and three losses in 10 matches.

Match Details

Pitch Report

The surface at the MCA Stadium has been quite good for batting. There has been some assistance for fast bowlers with the new ball. There is a high possibility of spinners coming into play, too as the game progresses. As a result, the team that wins the toss will look to bowl first. Chasing is going to be a good option, not only for what the surface offers, but also for the chances of rain that might be there.
