Medak Falcons Preview

Medak Falcons enter the contest with a fantastic start in the 2026 Telangana T20 League. Tilak and Co. pulled off an impressive performance to chase 259 runs. It remains the highest successful run-chase in any South Indian leagues including Andhra Premier League. Warangal posted 258 runs while batting first and Medak completed the chase with two balls left. 

Tilak fired in his debut game for the Falcons with unbeaten 136 runs off 56 balls. He single handily helped Medak to cross the line. The Falcons have been a top side of the season due to best picks in the auction. Their owners invested a good amount in picking players. 

Tilak would be a good asset in the tournament. He will be available for a couple of games before leaving for the UK for national duty. He also scored a century in the IPL this year. Ravi Teja is also a good asset. He is known for a record-breaking 6-wicket haul in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Manne bagged two wickets for 34 runs. He is a prime bowler to look out for. 

Medak Falcons Predicted Playing XI:

Tilak Varma, Ravi Teja T, Vikram Naik, Naman Agarwal, Sai Varun Yerram / Nayani Anish Reddy, Ishan Sharma, Syed Ghazi Abbas, Sai Purnanand, Kunta Rahul, Ahwinan Ram, Nomaan Ahmed

Weather Conditions

PRR vs MDF Pitch Report

The surface at Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium is purely a batting wicket. In the first two days, we saw a side chasing 259 runs. Out of six innings, teams crossed 200 runs four times. It will be a night game so batting would be slightly easier. In the last five matches at this ground, the average first batting score in T20 is 211. It is a good T20 batting surface where batsmen need to play sensibly. 

Score prediction: 

If Ranga Reddy bat first - 190-200 runs 

If Medak bat first - 230-240 runs 

Toss: To Bowl

In the last three T20s on this surface during the TG T20 League, chasing sides won all three times. In the previous game of this league, Falcons chased down 259 runs in the 2nd innings. This is the surface where we will see big totals getting chased down. Both teams have had earlier success while bowling first and they will look to bowl first in this fixture as well. 

Toss Prediction: Ranga Reddy to win the coin toss.
