Match Overview Kolhapur vs Satara

The 10th match of the Maharashtra Premier League (MPL) 2025 features the Kolhapur Tuskers (KT) against the winless Satara Warriors (STW) on June 10, 2025, at 2:00 PM IST at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune.

Recent Performance & Team Preview of Kolhapur Tuskers vs Satara Warriors


Kolhapur Tuskers


In their last five matches, Kolhapur has secured three wins but suffered two key defeats, highlighting their inconsistency. Their batting relies heavily on explosive starts from openers like Abhishek Kulkarni (130+ strike rate) and Ruturaj Gaikwad , who frequently cross 50-run partnerships. However, the middle order—featuring Shubham Khajuria and Shivam Sharma —has struggled to stabilize innings, leading to collapses.

Their bowling, led by Rahul Pawar (7 wickets at 7.5 economy), has been effective in the powerplay but falters in death overs. A recent win against Eagle Nashik Titans by 9 wickets showcased their batting depth but also exposed vulnerabilities in their death bowling .

Satara Warriors


Satara’s four consecutive wins reflect their balanced squad. Openers Aditya Sarwate (170+ runs, two fifties) and Siddhesh Neral provide fiery starts, while Akshay Darekar (145 strike rate) anchors the middle order. Their bowling attack, spearheaded by Milind More (8 wickets at 6.8 economy) and Prasad Pawar , has been disciplined, particularly in restricting totals in the final overs.

A recent loss to Ratnagiri Jets in a low-scoring game (116/8) was an outlier, but they bounced back strongly, emphasizing their resilience .
