Ajitesh Guruswamy in action in TNPL 2023 (Twitter)
The Nellai Royal Kings will be taking on the Idream Tiruppur Tamizhans in match number 10 of the TNPL 2023 season.
The Royal Kings have won both their fixtures thus far, and currently occupy a slot among the top four sides on the TNPL 2023 points table. They thumped the Siechem Madurai Panthers in their opening game of the tournament by six wickets, and with more than six overs still intact in the bank.
Next up, they chased down Lyca Kovai Kings’ monumental 181-run total off the last ball, courtesy of a sublime match-winning ton from Ajitesh Guruswamy.
Meanwhile, the Idream Tiruppur Tamizhans unit is yet to open its account on the points table, as they lost both their matches by heavy margins. In the tournament opener, they fell 70 runs short of Lyca Kovai Kings total in Coimbatore. Moreover, the Chepauk Super Gillies further piled on Tamizhans in the next game, by winning the contest by seven wickets.
Despite Idream Tiruppur Tamizhans’ poor form this season, they stand equal in head-to-head battle with the Nellai Royal Kings. The two sides have faced each other in four matches, with both claiming two wins each.
