Salem Spartans will be up against Nellai Royal Kings in Chennai. Spartans haven’t really been in good form and are presently placed at the bottom of the points table after suffering defeats in three of the five matches that they have played.
Nellai Royal Kings have won two and lost matches out of the five they have featured in the tournament so far. One game was washed away due to rain.
The Royal Kings would be riding high on confidence as they would be coming into this game on the back of a win against Dindigul Dragons in the last match. The Kings’ batting order was among some runs and anchored the side to a comfortable win.
Spartans on the other side, lost their last match against Ruby Trichy Warriors after their batting order failed to put a defendable total on the board.
