Alleppey’s campaign has stumbled out of the blocks, suffering back-to-back defeats. Trivandrum have fared marginally better, picking up two points in three games to claim the fifth position. While both teams are closely matched, Trivandrum’s marginally steadier performances tilt the balance in their favor for this encounter.

The season couldn't have started worse for Alleppey Ripples, who've dropped their opening two contests and occupy last place in the competition. Zero points collected and a net run rate sitting at -1.678 means they have to bounce back quickly before slipping too far off the pace.
Mohammed Azharuddeen has provided some hope for Alleppey despite the twin losses, putting together 67 runs while striking at 142.25. Abhishek P Nair has chipped in well too, managing 43 runs across two outings at an impressive 179.17 strike rate.
Akshay Chandran has added 40 runs from his two appearances at a rate of 89, offering stability at the top order while contributing handy spells during the middle periods.
The remaining batsmen have failed to fire so far, which has been a major factor in their disappointing results.
Their attack hasn't performed much better either. The majority of bowlers have leaked runs freely, though Vignesh Puthur and Sreehari S Nair have been the pick of the bunch with three scalps each. Jalaj Saxena and Akshay Chandran have shown some promise, but the team requires much more bowling impact to string victories together.
Jalaj Saxena, Akshay Chandran, Mohammed Azharuddeen (c & wk), Abhishek P Nair, Anuj Jotin, Akshay TK, Balu Babu, Aadithya Baiju, Sreehari S Nair, Nedumankuzhy Basil, Vignesh Puthur, Arjun Suresh Nambiar Substitute: Sreeroop MP, Mohammed Kaif

Adani Trivandrum Royals have stumbled out of the gate, with a lone victory against two defeats. Their most recent fixture was a seven-wicket blowout to the Calicut Globstars, where the Trivandrum side couldn’t hold on to a moderate score of 173.
Leading the way for the batting has been Krishna Prasad, who put together an impressive 78 off 54 in the last game. He is a guy who can get 30 to 40 runs at a fast pace at the top of the order and is the heart of the team’s hopes for the rest of the season.
Riya Basheer has also been reliable, with 82 runs in two games at a strike rate of 115.49. Outside of those two players, Abdul Basith and Govind Dev Pai bring more talent to the offense and could have a big impact in this matchup.
The Trivandrum bowlers have struggled with control, and it has been costly. Ajith V and Vinil TS have taken on the bulk of the work, with six wickets combined. Abhijith Praveen and Basil Thampi have contributed as well, but their habit of giving up runs is becoming a big problem for the team.
Krishna Prasad (c), Subin S (wk), Govind Dev Pai, Riya Basheer, Abdul Basith, Vinil TS, Nikhil M, Ajith V, Abhijith Praveen V, Basil Thampi, Fazil Fanoos Substitute: Sanjeev Satheresan, Asif Salam

The Greenfield International Stadium usually offers good value for batters, but bowlers also have enough to keep them interested. The quick outfield makes boundaries easier to find. As the pitch begins to wear, spinners get regular assistance, while the pacers also get steady help from the track. Batting is usually more comfortable in the later innings.
The Thiruvananthapuram weather suggests cloudy skies and a touch of breeze, though no major interruptions are likely.
Run-scoring at Greenfield International Stadium is usually on the lower side, with teams averaging just 127 in the first innings. Most matches this season have followed that pattern, except for yesterday’s outlier, where Thrissur Titans smashed 209-5. For this match, a total close to 170-180 while batting first should put the team batting first in a commanding position.
At Greenfield International Stadium, the numbers are clear—chasing teams have had the upper hand. Last season’s Kerala Cricket League saw 21 victories for sides batting second, while only 12 went to those setting a total. This year’s pattern is no different, with every toss-winning skipper in the seven games so far opting to field. Expect the same approach in this match, as the advantage clearly tilts toward the team bowling first.
Alleppey Ripples are under pressure to turn their fortunes around with a victory here. Their performances in batting and bowling have fallen short, and a quick turnaround is essential. Adani Trivandrum Royals have been slightly, though their bowling lineup still needs to find consistency. This match is tough to call, but Trivandrum’s overall form gives them a slight upper hand going into the contest.
Back Trivandrum Royals to emerge victorious in this game.
