TEAMS PREVIEW

Ruby Trichy Warriors Preview

Rahil Shah shall look to instill confidence in his players. They received a big drubbing in the last game against Chepauk Super Giles. Their bowling attack was annihilated, and the side needs to come out of this shocking defeat. They haven’t defeated the Kovai Kings in the last four editions of the tournament and Shah would like to break this poor record here.  

Amit Sathvik and Santosh Shiv looked in good form in the last game and the pair would like to set up a strong opening wicket partnership. Their middle order has failed to build partnerships and the trio of Adithya Ganesh, N Niranjan, and Nidhish Rajagopal have an important role in this game. Muhammed Adnan Khan and P Saravana Kumar shall have to do the big-hitting in this game.  

The bowling attack took a massive hit in the last game, and they have to come out of it. The new ball pair of Ajay Krishna and Saravan Kumar need to deliver early blows as Kovai Kings have good hitters of the ball in the side. Rahil will have to bring his experience to play in this game. The side would also like to see better spells from M Mathivannan and P Saravana Kumar, M Poiyamozhi in this game.

Lyca Kovai Kings Preview

After two consecutive losses, Shahrukh Khan’s side finally hit form and registered their first win of the side. It was a good performance with the bat and the ball from the side in their 8-wicket win against the Salem Spartans. Khan would want his players to make use of this momentum and move up on the points table with a win in this game.  

Openers Ganga Sridhar Raju and Suresh Kumar have played well this season and the side would want to see a good start from them. Sai Sudharsan’s return to form is good for the side and he would like to add runs in the middle order with Shahrukh Khan and Shijit Chandran. Abhishek Tanwar, U Mukilesh, and Balu Surya are good hitters of the ball, and they would look to do the big-hitting in this game.  

Abhishek Tanwar and K Vignesh grabbed early wickets in the last game, and they would have to come up with similar efforts sharing the new ball. Surya was brilliant with the ball and put brakes on the scoring rate and this would add to his confidence. Khan is an experienced campaigner, and he would look to do well along with S Ajith Ram and R Divakar in the middle overs.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

The skies over Coimbatore would be clear on July 10. The wicket is fresh, and we expect it to be a solid batting surface where batsmen would be able to play their strokes without any fear. Bowlers shall have a tough time on this track. A score of 180 runs would be good to defend with disciplined bowling.

Venue Details

SNR College Cricket Ground, Coimbatore is one of the smallest grounds in this tournament. The shorter boundaries and quick outfield make it an excellent venue for batsmen who can score runs easily. In the past fast bowlers have struggled on this surface but spinners do well as the ball stops on the batsmen occasionally.

Toss: To Bowl

It will be the first day on this track and we expect to see assistance for the bowlers early on during the game. Most teams have won games this year chasing the total and we expect this trend to continue. The side winning the toss would like to bat first on this wicket.
