IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans head into the clash at Tirunelveli riding a stronger campaign. The form guide will show Tiruppur as the side which has looked much better after grabbing a couple of wins. They will need their consistency to improve though.
Lyca Kovai Kings have historically dominated this fixture in a head-to-head context, but overall, their campaign has been a bumpy ride this year.

There should be no injuries or unavailabilities to be concerned about in either camp
Recent first innings scores at the ground show that 165-plus is a fair estimate for a par score. The warm conditions could add to the batter-friendliness of the ground to add a few more runs onto that. This may become a pitch where the spinners can chip in with wickets while playing a holding role. The pacers will continue to play a big part though.
Suresh Lokeshwar has been a revelation in the league. The right-handed Kovai batter has more than 800 runs with six half-centuries. Tushar Raheja’s TNPL career record is up with the stars. The left-hander has over 1000 runs with eight half-centuries, a batting average over 30 and a strike rate over 145.
C Andre Siddarth has been a dangerous batter at domestic level. At only 18 years old, the young batter hit over 600 runs in the recent Ranji Trophy. He should have the technique to score runs in the shortest format without fully having the record to show for it. Jitendra Kumar has stuttered along this season, but he has maintained a steady strike rate of almost 130. Pradosh Ranjan Paul’s 748 TNPL runs make him a batter to watch out for. He has four half-centuries to add to that stat.
Mohamed Ali’s 131.36 batting strike rate and two three-wicket hauls make him both a power-hitter and strike bowler all in one.
Ramesh Divakar has 27 wickets in his TNPL career. His consistency over a shorter period is remarkable. Jhathavedh Subramanyan impressed in the 2024 edition with eight wickets at an economy rate of only 6.09. Ragupathy Silambarasan is creeping up to 50 TNPL wickets. The fast bowler is currently four wickets away. Sai Kishore is one of his side’s leading spinners. The left-armer has five three-wicket hauls and one five-wicket haul.
Tushar Raheja’s most recent innings was a 19-ball 40 was his lowest score. He has set the bar extremely high for himself this year. His other scores in TNPL 2025 read 80, 74, 65 not out and 79. He currently has a batting average of 84.50.
Suresh Lokeshwar has the portfolio of work from 2024 behind him which exudes a batter who can score runs heavily. The wicketkeeper-batter hit 196 runs while striking over 150 in the previous season.
A form side is often made up of players who are in form themselves too. The Tiruppur lineup could give you quite a few players who are worth selecting. The all-rounders, particularly if they can also bowl seam up, are a golden commodity in this league. The spinners may have something to work with too in quite warm conditions.
The conditions will be in your favour if you select a number of phenomenal batters. They should be able to cash in on a pitch which may suit the batters who can play a lengthy innings once set.
Tushar Raheja with 822 Dream11 fantasy points has earned an unbelievable number of points in recent matches. M Shahrukh Khan is still far away behind him with 487 points.
Tushar Raheja with 338 runs has more than double the 154 runs of M Shahrukh Khan behind him in second place
Sai Kishore has seven wickets, Ragupathy Silambarasan has six wickets and Esakkimuthu A has five wickets. Everyone else has four wickets or less
Tushar Raheja is in a league of his own with 25 sixes in five innings. That is more than three times as many as M Shahrukh Khan and Suresh Lokeshwar with eight sixes
Both Jhathavedh Subramanyan and Ragupathy Silambarasan have strike rates of 400 after a single innings. Tushar Raheja has a strike rate of 204.85 after five innings
Ramesh Divakar has an economy rate of only 4.17 after one game. Sai Kishore and Manimaran Siddharth both have economies under six runs per over after a longer time
