Tamil Thalaiva are placed 10th in the points table while U Mumba are at the 7th spot. There isn’t much of a difference between the two teams in terms of points and number of victories. But the Thalaiva has won its last 3 matches while U Mumba has not won any of the last 5 games. U Mumba’s fortunes are dwindling quickly. They lost to the Gujarat Giants in their last match by a margin of 9 points. They matched the Giants in most of their moves, but 2 all-outs in the match cost them. 

On the other hand, Tamil Thalaiva exploited the Telegu Titans as they hammered 54 team points. The Thalaiva registered a massive 25 point victory which will help them tremendously in their score difference. Raiders Narender Kandola and Ajinkya Pawar looted 21 raid points collectively while Captain Sagar scored 8 tackle points. With such a well-oiled machine, the Tamil Thalaiva have a wonderful chance to bully U Mumba into submission.

Tamil Thalaivas Preview

One of the most vibrant sides of the league, Tamil Thalaiva has enhanced its game in the last 3 matches. Their dedicated fans were always left high and dry over the years. But off late the Thalaiva has started roaring even against bigger teams. The biggest reason for this turn-around is their defense as well as the young raiding party of Narender Kandola and Ajinkya Pawar. Captain Sagar has been one of the best defenders on the circuit while defender Sahil Gulia has brought the sharpness that the Thalaiva was missing. 

The Thalaiva had a wonderful outing against the Telegu Titans. They exploited the already rusty Titans and won the match in style by a huge margin of 25 points. This helped them not just in earning valuable points but their score difference went through a massive improvement. Ajinkya and Narender Kandola each scored a Super 10 while Captain Sagar earned a Hi 5. Left corner Himanshu was at his ruthless best as the looted 7 tackle points. This was one of the best performance by the Thalaiva in this season. Tamil Thalaiva inflicted 3 all-outs in the match as they went on a rampage. Can they repeat the same against U Mumba?

Defenders M Abhishek and left cover Mohit too have been scratchy but useful. The Thalaiva has also tried using multiple raiders in their matches. Apart from Narender Kandola and Ajinkya Pawar they have used the services of raiders Jatin and Nitin Singh apart from Iranian all-rounder Bastami. 

Tamil Thalaiva has a decent scoring average of 37 per match.

They have conceded just 13 all-outs and inflicted 20 in 15 matches.

Raiders Ajinkya Pawar an Narender Kandola have gathered 226 raid points together while defenders Sagar and Sahil Gulia have executed 101 successful tackles in the tournament. Other players in the team need to contribute regularly so that these 4 players can blossom further. The Thalaiva has a dismal record against U Mumba. They have beaten U Mumba just twice in their 10 meetings. But currently the Thalaiva is placed better than their opponents in all departments of the game. This will be an entertaining and exciting match.

U Mumba Preview

Former Champions have been wayward in their last 5 matches. They are stuck in the lower half of the points table since the last 5 weeks. Whenever they have displayed grit and agility, they win a couple of matches. But they have been unable to maintain the intensity on a continuous basis. In the initial weeks of the tournament, Mumba had issues with its raiding. But that seems to be sorted as Guman Singh has been earning consistently. He has earned 139 raid points from 109 successful raids. He was complemented by Iranian youngster Zafardanesh. But he seems to be missing out on consistency. He could earn just 5 raid points in the last match. U Mumba has gone through a complete upheaval of their defense. They had the services of Rinku Singh and Mahender Singh but now coach Golamreza has entrusted the job to defenders Gokulakannan, Bittu and Shanmugam. 

Mumba lost to the Gujarat Giants in their last match. While Guman Singh scored a Super 10, the Mumba defense was not in the best mood. Left cover Shanmugam scored a Hi 5 but the support raiders could not add to the tally. Mumba conceded 2 all-outs in the match to go down to their arch rivals. With this loss, they have got stuck at the 7th spot in the points table. They have the same number of victories as Tamil Thalaiva who will be their next opponents. 

Unfortunately, U Mumba has had bouts of low intensity which leads them to fail at crucial moments. Their defense is yet to pick up pace which puts a lot of pressure on their raiders. Captain Surinder Singh has been inaccurate with his tackles. Their corners are also not performing as expected. This will be the biggest challenge for Mumba as they take on the Tamil Thalaiva. Due to these defensive lapses, U Mumba lost a close game to arch-rivals Gujarat Giants.

Mumba has a better record against the Thalaiva as they have won 7 out of their 10 encounters. But the Thalaiva can be a tricky customer as their young raiders and defenders are in much better form than U Mumba. Hence this will be a difficult match for the former champions as they will struggle throughout the match.

Former Champions U Mumba are at the crossroads in season 10. They have not won a single game out of their last 5 outings and time is running out. They take on the in-form Tamil Thalaiva whom they defeated last time on 17th December 2023. Guman Singh will lead the charge as he will score a Super 10. The Mumba support raiders are their biggest weakness. Overall raid earnings of U Mumba will be below average. But the Mumba defense will not go down without a fight. Bittu, Shanmugam and Gokulakannan will trouble the Tamil raiders. 

The Tamil Thalaiva will be energetic and aggressive in the first half. Raiders Narender and Ajinkya will trouble Mumba early with some fine moves. One of them will score a Super 10. Captain Sagar will target Mumba raider Guman Singh while left corner Himanshu and defender Abhishek will trap the support raiders. Mumba will not be able to score quickly. Tamil Thalaiva will inflict at least 2 all-outs on their opponents. The second half of the match will be full of fireworks as U Mumba will make desperate attacks. This will be an entertaining match but the men in yellow hold the advantage.

Tamil Thalaiva will win.
