LKK vs CSG Team Previews
Lyca Kovai Kings
The Lyca Kovai Kings played some excellent cricket in the previous season. Not only did they finish at the top of the points table during the group stages, but they went on to lift the title as well.
LKK has managed to retain most of its core squad that has won them consecutive titles. Sai Sudharsan, who was the leading run-getter for the team in the previous season will feature in the top order alongside U Mukilesh.
Suresh Kumar, B Sachin, and S Sujay add heft to the middle order while all-rounders Shahrukh Khan and Atheek Ur Rahman add depth to the batting.
Shahrukh Khan was brilliant with the ball in the previous season, picking up 17 wickets. He will lead the spin department in this game, while Gowtham Thamarai and M Mohammed are likely to begin the proceedings with the new ball.
Lyca Kovai Kings Playing 11
J Suresh Kumar, S Sujay, B Sachin, Shahrukh Khan, Ram Arvindh, Atheeq Ur Rahman, M Mohammed, Manimaran Siddharth, U Mukilesh, Jhatavedh Subramanyan, Valliappan Yudheeswaran.
Chepauk Super Gillies
The Super Gillies are the most successful team in the history of TNPL. However, its performance in the last season was far from perfect as the team failed to make it to the playoffs.
Baba Aparajith was the best player for the team in the previous season as he top-scored for them with 238 runs. He also went on to pick up 7 wickets, proving to be an excellent all-rounder. Skipper N Jagadeesan had a quiet outing last time around and will be hoping for a better start this year.
With players like Andre Siddharth, Pradosh Ranjan Paul, and R Sathish likely to join the batting, there is no dearth of talent in the squad.
The bowling was pretty mediocre as well. CSG has retained the spin duo of Rahil Shah and M Silambarasan, who were the top wicket-takers for them. The pace attack will be helmed by Harish Kumar and R Rohit.
