KBTS vs CAGS Match Prediction & Analysis
Kochi Blue Tigers are on a roll with three consecutive wins, two of which came while chasing a target. The last time they played Calicut Globstars, the Tigers conceded 249 runs bowling first, and lost the match by 33 runs.
Since then, the Tigers have been unbeaten. Globstars, on the other hand, scored 176 and 186 batting first in their next two matches since that win. They were only successful in defending a 186-run score in the last game against the bottom-placed Trivandrum Royals.
Tigers, the top-placed team, led by Sanju Samson’s 83 off 41 balls, chased down a 177-run target with 3 wickets in hand. Left-arm orthodox Jerin PS was crucial in this win with his unbeaten 25 off 13 balls at number 8.
For the Globstars, Salman Nizar is one to watch out for in the middle order. The left-handed batsman scored an unbeaten 86 off just 26 balls at number 6 to turn the game around after he came into bat when the team was 4 down for 76 runs in the 14th over.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Kochi Blue Tigers Preview
The Tigers have chased down 170+ in their last two consecutive wins. That will boost their confidence coming into this match, and skipper Sally Samson will back his men to bowl first in this game too.
Before Sanju Samson’s 83 off 41 balls in the last game, Vinoop Manoharan scored a fifty opening the innings for Kochi Blue Tigers. Both Manoharan and Samson have looked in great touch at the top.
The two will be crucial for a good start and will be key players to watch. Nikhil Thotttath and skipper Sally Samson are handy batters in the middle order who’ve shown promise in their recent innings.
Thottath’s unbeaten 45 off 35 balls at number 4 helped the Tigers cross the 190-run mark against Trivanrdrum Royals while being supported by the 18-year-old Jobin Joby’s 26 off 10 balls at number 6.
There have been a handful of impactful knocks in the lower middle order, including the performances from Joby, Sally Samson, and Jerin PS. The top order batters, Vinoop Manoharan and Muhammed Shan,u must look to take a more proactive approach to their batting and score at a quicker pace.
The experienced KM Asif will lead the bowling attack for Kochi Blue Tigers. Jerin PS will lead the spin-bowling attack. The legbreak Afrad Nazar has been wicketless and expensive in his last two games, while Jerin PS is a key wicket-taker with his left-arm orthodox bowling.
Kochi Blue Tigers Predicted Playing XI:
Vinoop Manoharan, Saly Samson (c), Sanju Samson, Jobin Joby, Ajeesh K, Alfi Francis John, Nikhil Thottath (wk), Afrad Nazar, KM Asif, Jerin PS, Sreehari Nair, Muhammed Shanu

Calicut Globstars Preview
Calicut will be eyeing the top spot in the points table with a win here against an in-form Kochi. They beat them convincingly in their last encounter.
The lower middle order batsman Salman Nizar and batting all-rounder P Anfal were among the key performers for Calicut Globstarts in the recent matches. However, the Globstars need their top order batters to get back to rhythm so they don’t have to rely on the lower order to come to the rescue once again.
Skipper Rohan Kunnumal is an experienced batsman in the top order who scored 94 off 43 balls in their last match against Calicut Globstars. That game also saw Maruthungal Ajinas and Akhil Scaria step up and make significant contributions with the bat.
Ajinas, in the middle order, has scored 51, 27, and 49 in his last three outings, while Scaria scored 45 off 19 balls to help his team cross the 240-run mark.
In the bowling department, Harikrishnan MU is the one to watch out for. He’s been very consistent in delivering key breakthroughs that bring the team into the competition. Akhil Scaria and left-arm pacer Ibmul Aftnaf are the key wicket-takers, looking in great shape for the Calicut Globstars.
Calicut Globstars Predicted Playing XI:
Suresh Sachin (wk), Rohan Kunnummal (c), Maruthungal Ajinas, Akhil Scaria, Preethish Pawan, Salman Nizar, Pallam Muhammed Anfal, Harikrishnan MU, Sudhesan Midhun, Akhil Dev, Manu Krishnan

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
There will be light rain in Thiruvananthapuram in the morning and around the game time with a high of 31 degrees Celsius. However, we reckon, it won’t be so bad, and we could still have a game of cricket between the top two teams, albeit losing a few overs from both innings.
KBTS vs CAGS Pitch Report
It is a greatly balanced wicket at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram. There have been some exciting games recently, with both batters and bowlers having enjoyed a lot of help from the surface. There is plenty of help for the batters on this ground, and with an average first innings score of 176 runs in the last 10 games, the batting team will need to aim for something around 190 or more runs to stay competitive in the game.
Toss: To Bowl
Both teams will prefer to bowl first, considering their current form and the fact that the teams batting first have won 4 of the last 5 matches of the Kerala Cricket League 2025 played on this ground. Though Calicut Globstars won two of their last three matches while batting first, we think their captain would rather bowl first to give his team the best chance of winning this match.
KBTS vs CAGS
Winning Prediction
Kochi Blue Tigers have the winning momentum on their side, and after two consecutive wins while chasing 170+, they will be confident taking on the Globstars in this match. Calicut, on the other hand, has a strong batting lineup that can help them post a massive total, as they did the last time they played the Tigers. It is a neck-and-neck contest with Kochi Blue Tigers finding a slight edge in our match prediction.
