Ninjas captain Akash Madhwal in IPL 2023 (IPLT20.COM)
The Uttarakhand Premier League (UPL) 2023 season will continue with match number 14, where Nainital Ninjas will take on the Udhamsingh Nagar Tigers in Dehradun. The upcoming contest marks the fifth fixture for both sides in this tournament.
Nainital Ninjas have secured two wins and just one defeat from their four matches this season, with the other being a rain-affected no result. They defeated Tehri Titans off a last-ball run-chase but were humbled by table-toppers Dehradun Dabangs in their next outing.
The Ninjas regrouped from their defeat to register an emphatic 15-run win over Haridwar Heroes, thus putting their campaign back on course.
Udhamsingh Nagar Tigers, on the other hand, have also secured two wins from their four matches. However, owing to a slightly inferior net run rate, they are placed below the Ninjas on the UPL 2023 points table.
After an eight-wicket flogging in their tournament opener, the Tigers claimed big wins over Tehri Titans and Haridwar Heroes next up. But their high-flying run was disrupted by the Pithoragarh Champs in their most recent outing.
