Hindustan Times Gurugram|December 15, 2024
With coach Chandrakant Pandit at the helm of Madhya Pradesh, a cricket rivalry is brewing between MP and Mumbai.
Sanjeev K Samyal

MUMBAI: The two sides will contest in their second final in the last couple of years. After beating Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy final played in June 2022, MP have set up a title clash with Mumbai in the T20 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Sunday's final, interestingly, will be at the same venue - Bengaluru's M Chinnaswamy Stadium.

Packed with internationals, Mumbai look stronger on paper, but Pandit, the former Mumbai captain and coach, has proved that reputations don't matter for a team he coaches.
