TNPL

Chepauk Super Gillies (Match Odds – 1.38):

Preview:

The Chepauk Super Gillies are the most successful team in TNPL history and the reigning champions this season. They defeated the Salem Spartans convincingly in their first game, demonstrating that they are still in top form.

Chepauk Super Gillies have an impressive batting lineup. Pradosh Paul and N Jagadeesan will most likely open the batting. Jagadeesan has had a fantastic domestic season and will be hoping to continue that form here. Paul hit a brilliant half-century in the first game and appears to be in good form.

The Super Gillies have bolstered their batting by bringing in Baba Aparajith and Sanjay Yadav, who were among the top three scorers last season. Uthirasamy Sasidev, Harish Kumar, and Rajagopal Sathish provide batting depth.

Harish Kumar and Ramalingam Rohit, along with M Viju Arul, are expected to lead the seam attack. The Super Gillies have a strong spin attack as well, with players like M Silambarasan, Rahil Shah, and Rocky Bhasker.

Full Squad:

U Saidev, Naryan Jagadeesan, Sanjay Yadav, Baba Aparajith, Pradosh Ranjan Paul, Harish Kumar S, Sathish R, Rahil Shah, Rohit R, Silambarasan M, Sibi R, Mathan Kumar S, Santosh Shiv S, Viju Arul M, Lokesh Raj TD, Rocky B, Ayyappan

Players to watch out for:

Pradosh Ranjan Paul

The 22-year-old left-handed opener smashed 12 fours and one six in a brilliant innings on Tuesday. He is looking forward to batting again at this venue.

Baba Aparajith

The batting all-rounder excelled in both disciplines against the Salem Spartans. He went 2-28 and scored 29 runs on 19 balls.

Rahil Shah

The 37-year-old left-arm spinner was one of his team’s most impressive bowlers in their opening victory. In T20 cricket, he rarely goes wicketless.

Possible Playing XI:

Pradosh Ranjan Paul, Narayan Jagadeesan (c) (wk), Baba Aparajith, Sanjay Yadav, S Harish Kumar, Rajagopal Satish, Uthirasamy Sasidev, Ramalingam Rohit, Rahil Shah, M Silambarasan, M Viju Arul, Rocky Bhasker

Idream Tiruppur Tamizhans (Match Odds – 3.05):

Preview:

The Tiruppur Tamizhans finished fifth in the points table last season, just missing out on a playoff spot. Their most recent campaign has also not started well, as they were defeated by the Lyca Kovai Kings in their season opener.

The Tiruppur Tamizhans will need to improve their batting, especially since they will be facing a quality bowling attack in the Super Gillies. Tushar Raheja and NS Chaturved are expected to open the batting here, and the team will rely on them to get things going.

The middle order, which includes Vishal Vaidhya, Balchander Ashwin, and S Ganesh, will look to stabilize the innings in the middle overs. There are a few all-rounders on the team, including skipper Sai Kishore, Vijay Shankar, and Rajendran Vivek, who can provide a late flourish toward the end of the innings.

The bowling effort in the previous match was fairly mediocre, and there is plenty of room for improvement. G Periyaswamy and P Bhuvaneswaran, the new ball bowlers, were given plenty of runs and will need to be disciplined with their line and length.

Sai Kishore and Vijay Shankar each took 5 wickets, while the spinners Ajith Ram and S Manigandan were ineffective.

Full Squad:

Tushar Raheja, Vijay Shankar, R Vivek, R Sai Kishore, Anirudh Sita Ram B, Chaturved NS, Periyasamy G, Trilok Nag H, Vishal Vaidhya K, Rahul Ayyapan Harish, Ganesh S, Mohamed Ali S, Manigandan S, Radhakrishnan S, Vetrivel I, Karuppusamy S, Bhuvaneswaran P, Ragavan M

Players to watch out for:

Tushar Raheja

The keeper-batsman was the only one of Tiruppur’s top seven to hit a six on this pitch in their first game, and he will bat aggressively in this Ravisrinivasan Cup match.

Sai Kishore

The captain impressed with the ball against the Kovai Kings, scoring 2-24, but will look to make more of an impact with the bat in this game after scoring 1 run off 4 balls.

Vijay Shankar

The former India ODI and T20I international scored a hat-trick in only the third over of the tournament on Monday. His bowling style is appropriate for the conditions in Coimbatore.

Possible Playing XI:

Tushar Raheja (wk), NS Chaturved, K Vishal Vaidhya, Vijay Shankar, Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore (c), S Ganesh, Balchander Anirudh, Rajendran Vivek, Ajith Ram, P Bhuvaneswaran, S Manigandan
