SMS vs RTW Team Previews
Salem Spartans
The Salem Spartans have been a bit inconsistent this season. With just 1 win in 3 matches, the team is currently in the bottom half of the points table.
However, some of the players from the Spartans team are in good form and the fans will expect them to perform well in this match. R Kavin has been excellent at the top of the order and is the leading run-scorer of the season so far. His opening partner Sa Abisheik hasn’t been able to give him good support at the opposite end.
On the other hand, Vishal Vaidhya and R Vivek have scored a half-century each and can change the course of the game if they get going. Coming to the bowling, Sunny Sandhu, M Poiyamozhi, and Harish Kumar have bowled well in the pace department, picking up 13 wickets between them.
Yazh Arun Mozhi, who was playing his first match of the season on Thursday, bowled well to pick up 3 wickets.

Ruby Trichy Warriors
After losing their season opener, the Trichy Grand Cholas scored a thumping win over Madurai Panthers last Tuesday, which not only gave them 2 points but gave a big boost to their NRR.
Waseem Ahmed and Sanjay Yadav were in red-hot form during the match against Madurai and put up a partnership of 126 runs in just 63 to help their team put up a match-winning total. Both of them scored half-centuries.
Sanjay Yadav also picked up 3 wickets, once again showing how indispensable as an all-rounder. However, the other batsmen haven’t been in the best of forms so far. Arjun Murthy and Jafar Jamal are going through a particularly rough patch, and they will need to get back to form soon.
K Easwaran is the leading wicket-taker of the season with 7 wickets, while R Rajkumar and Athiyaraj Davidson have picked up 3 wickets each.
