NRK vs SS Dream11 Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – TNPL 2025

Written by: Archana Luthria • 15.06.2025

Match Preview

The Salem Spartans have started off in style, winning all its 3 matches. Another win here will further strengthen its case to make it to the playoffs. However, their record against Nellai hasn’t been the best but given the rhythm they are in, Salem could very well break the jinx.

The Nellai Royal Kings on the other hand have been a bit inconsistent. They are coming into this contest on the back of a heavy defeat and will be desperate to turn things around.

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

We are expecting a pitch that will help the seamers early on in the match. The surface is expected to be moist with patches of green grass that allow the faster bowlers to extract some movement off the seam. However, as the match progresses, it tends to dry out a bit and gets easier to bat on.

There is a forecast for rain in Salem on Sunday and we can expect some interruptions due to rain.

NRK vs SS Dream11 Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

Arun Karthik and R Kavin have both batted well for their respective teams and we have selected them both for our team.

Batters

Nidhish Rajagopal has scored 2 half-centuries in 3 games and is the top choice in this category. We are also going for Hari Nishanth and Adnan Khan.

All Rounders

Both teams have plenty of all-rounders to choose from. M Mohammed is the leading wicket-taker and is the obvious choice. Sonu Yadav, Sunny Sandhu, and N Harish have the ability to contribute with the bat and the ball.

Bowlers

Since the pitch is likely to favor the seamers, we are selecting M Poiyamozhi and V y, both of whom have a good record.

NRK vs SS Captain and Vice-Captain Choices

Captain

M Mohammed is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament and also has the most number of points among all players in the team. He is also a handy batsman lower down the order and we are therefore selecting him as the captain of our team.

Vice-Captain

Sonu Yadav has a strong record as an all-rounder in the TNPL. While not in the best of forms, we are expecting him to contribute throughout the game.

NRK vs SS Team Expert Advice

We have gone for a balanced team for this match as the pitch is likely to favor the bowlers initially and then get better to bat. The spinners haven’t found much success here. Also, given the fact that the pitch will have moisture and the overcast conditions, we have selected a bowling unit that leans heavily on seamers.
