The pitch is known to be a balanced one, the straight and square boundaries are very big at this venue which will get the spinners into action.
In the first match of the double-header Wednesday in the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) 2023, Chepauk Super Gillies (CSG) fight with Dindigul Dragons (DD) at the NPR College Ground, Dindigul. The Dindigul-based franchise has won both of their matches and has four points with an excellent net run rate standing on the pole position. On the other hand, the Chepauk-based franchise has played three matches, winning two and losing one to attain four points. Currently, they are sitting in the third place.
The Ravichandran Ashwin-led side has been fantastic with their star-studded bowling lineup restricting the opponents easily under 130 and the batters chasing it with ease. Ashwin, Varun Chakravarthy and P Saravana Kumar have been brilliant on the bowling front, while Baba Indrajith has been good with the bat, scoring consistently. The rest of the squad has chipped in with handy contributions helping the side get a dominating start to the Tamil Nadu Premier League season.
The most successful team in the competition’s history, Chepauk Super Gillies, were off to a flying start, winning the first couple of games quite comfortably. But Lyca Kovai Kings pulled the Super Gillies back down to earth handing them a 7-wicket defeat in the previous encounter. Though their trusted players including skipper Narayan Jagadeesan failed in the previous game, the group consisting of Baba Aparajith, R Sanjay Yadav, Pradosh Paul, M Silambarasan and Rahil Shah is more than capable of a strong comeback.
The pitch is known to be a balanced one, the straight and square boundaries are very big at this venue which will get the spinners into action. The weather is expected to be slightly humid. The captain who wins the toss will look to chase the total down as there is a bit of dew expected in the latter half of the second innings.
