The Gulbarga Mystics (GBM) will play their second match in two days when they take on the Shivamogga Yodhas (SMY) in Match 7 of the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 2026 on Tuesday, June 23, as part of a double header. 

GBM will come into the game after playing against defending champions Coastal Kings Mangaluru a day before their clash against the Yodhas. They did lose their opening game of the season, falling to a six-wicket loss at the hands of Kalyani Bengaluru Blasters.

SMY, on the other hand, have already played twice this season with a 50-50 record. They suffered a defeat to the Kalyani Bengaluru Blasters in their previous game after beating Mysore Warriors in their opening match of the new campaign.
