TEAMS PREVIEW

Nellai Royal Kings Preview

Nellai Royal Kings previously known as VB Kanchi Veerans, have not only changed their name but almost have made many changes in their team. One thing that would play to NRK’s advantage is they have a completely new roster and none of the other teams have seen them perform in the tournament. It would be difficult for the opponent teams to devise a strategy against this team. Nellai Royal Kings have one of the best hard-hitting batsmen in their squad. Captain Baba Aparajith will be the key batsmen for this team. He will have to anchor the innings and also score runs at a higher rate at the end of the innings. Another batsman to watch out for in this team is Indrajith B. He is one of the best young talents in Tamil Nadu cricket. With an impressive batting record in the state circuits, he will surely make an impact this season.

Sanjay Yadav and Harish NS will lead the bowling attack for NRK. They have retained a few bowlers and included all-rounders in their squad to have a deep batting order. B Aparajith will add to the strength of the bowling attack. The bowling department seems to be a weak link in this squad due to the lack of specialist bowlers.

Key Players: Baba Aparajith, Indrajith B, Sanjay Yadav, Harish NS.

Nellai Royal Kings Predicted Playing XI:

Baba Aparajith(c), Indrajith B, Abhinav M, Ajith Kumar T, Ashwath Mukunthan, Suryap Prakash L, Senthil Nathan S, Suresh C, Vivek R, Sanjay Yadav, Harish NS.
