TCB vs UPN Team Previews

Chennai Braves Jaguars

Thisara Perera, as captain, brings a wealth of international experience and a reputation for game-changing performances both with the bat and ball. His leadership will be central to unifying the team’s strategy and instilling a fearless approach under pressure situations. He hit a powerful 36 runs unbeaten against the Bolts.

The batting lineup is anchored by the solid Rassie van der Dussen and the explosive Chris Lynn. Van der Dussen is known for his technique and poise at the crease with pull shots to amaze the crowd. The South African blasted 24 runs in no time against the Ajman Bolts. On the other hand, Lynn is simply a brutal ball-striker capable of dismantling bowling attacks with his fierce hitting.

Bhanuka Rajapaksa is a flair player with the bat. The left-hander will excite the crowd if he has licence to target the boundaries.

The bowling stocks are largely made up of an Asian contingent. Nuwan Thushara and Ali Khan lead the pace attack. Thushara’s ability to swing the new ball and Khan’s knack for bowling at the crucial moments make them a strong force to be reckoned with.

Thushara was brilliant against Ajman with three wickets in his two overs. Matiullah Khan also grabbed two wickets in the same innings. The spin department looks rather light and may be an area that the opposition will target.

UP Nawabs

Captain and opening batter Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who brings explosive power in the first two overs. Although only a young captain in the making, Gurbaz will have learnt the tricks of the trade from his international experience with Afghanistan.

The Afghan batter hit a blistering 52 runs off only 21 balls against the Gladiators. He was ably supported by Sri Lankan Avishka Fernando with 34 runs off 17 balls.

Dawid Malan is known for his consistency in T20 cricket and ability to anchor an innings. His role will be to build partnerships alongside the top-order and accelerate when needed. Wicketkeeper-batter Andre Fletcher's flair and experience bring a unique blend of aggression and finesse to the batting order.

Englishmen Adil Rashid and Tymal Mills will lead the bowling attack. Rashid's leg-spin mastery is the cherry on the cake to Mills’ pace and ability to deliver deadly yorkers and variations in the death overs.

he supporting fast-bowling roles of Binura Fernando, Odean Smith and Curtis Campher will be crucial for the overs when fielding restrictions are lifted. Fernando and Rashid both put in impressive bowling performances with three wickets each against the Deccan Gladiators.

Mills grabbed a double in the same game.

TCB vs UPN Toss Prediction

Both teams may be in favour of bowling first to make the best of the new ball in the first innings. The competition has largely been a case of teams winning by chasing, especially because of the dew factor in evening/night games.

Pitch and Conditions

The dew conditions could make it easier for the team batting second, especially as the early evening starts to set in. Any score in the double digits, may not be competitive enough to chase. After the first 20 matches of the tournament, the highest target chased down in a day/night game was 108 by the Bangla Tigers with just over two overs and ten wickets to spare.

Overhead conditions will be minimally cloudy, but mostly sunny. That won’t change much regarding the hot and humid temperatures. No rain is expected.
