Chepauk Super Gillies will go head-to-head against Dindigul Dragons in the 11th match of the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) 2023 on Wednesday, June 21 at NPR Colleges Ground, Dindigul.
The TNPL 2023 campaign started well for Chepauk Super Gillies, with two consecutive wins against Salem Spartans and Idream Tiruppur Tamizhans. However, their winning run was halted by Lyca Kovai Kings, who defeated them by eight wickets in the latest encounter.
With four points to their name, the Super Gillies currently occupy the fourth spot on the TNPL points table. Following a disappointing outing in their last match, they will be hungry to turn things around and come back stronger in the tournament.
On the other hand, the tournament has been a breeze for Dindigul Dragons as they have convincingly won both of their matches. Sitting comfortably at the top of the points table, they will be looking on extending their winning streak and maintaining their dominant form.

Pitch Report
The surface at Dindigul has proven to be a paradise for bowlers in the last three matches. Teams have struggled to put up substantial totals, failing to breach even the 150-run mark. The surface has been equally helpful for both pacers and spinners, indicating that Wednesday's match is likely to witness yet another low-scoring affair.
