Salem Spartans
Salem Spartans, currently languishing in the bottom half of the table with just one win, are desperate for a turnaround. Their batting will rely heavily on R Kavin, Muhammed Adnan Khan, and Aushik Srinivas to fire. M Poiyamozhi’s bowling prowess will be crucial to restricting Chennai Super Gillies.

S Abhishek, R Kavin (wk), Muhammed Adnan Khan, Aushik Srinivas, N Selva Kumaran, Shijit Chandran (c), Sunny Sandhu, Rajendran Vivek, S Harish Kumar, M Poiyamozhi, ME Yazh Arun Mozhi
Chepauk Super Gillies
On the other hand, Chepauk Super Gillies are riding high after a convincing victory in their previous match. Captain Baba Aparajith and wicket-keeper N Jagadeesan will be key with the bat, while Abhishek Tanwar’s bowling will be crucial.
Chepauk Super Gillies Predicted Playing XI:
N Jagadeesan (wk), Baba Aparajith (c), Pradosh Ranjan Paul, Daryl Ferrario, Andre Siddarth C, Jitendra Kumar, Abhishek Tanwar, Aswin Crist, Rahil Shah, Balu Surya, Ganeshan Periyaswamy
Pitch and Weather Conditions
The pitch offers something for the bowlers initially, but expect a batting paradise later. Drizzle is expected throughout the match, which could add an element of uncertainty.
Chepauk Super Gillies hold the upper hand, having won their last encounter against Salem Spartans in Coimbatore. Historically, teams batting second have a slight advantage at this venue.
Match Prediction:
While Chepauk Super Gillies appear favorites based on current form, Salem Spartans cannot be entirely written off. The weather conditions and a home crowd advantage could work in their favor. Expect a closely fought contest with Chepauk Super Gillies edging it out.
