Tamil Nadu T20 League

2nd Match: DD vs. RTW

Preview

After a terrific start in the Tamil Nadu T20 League where the match went into the super over, people looked to be very excited to know what is to come. In the second match of the tournament, the finalists of the last season, Warriors are set to challenge the Dragons from Dindigul at the Indian Cement Ground. The Warriors finished 3rd in the league table last year and will look forward to getting better and Murali Vijay, the veteran of the format should show them the right path.

However it is not going to be any easy for them. Hari Nishaanth, one of the brightest stars of the Tamil Nadu T20 League represents the dragons and he is a very dangerous player. He can take the attack on the opposition and was phenomenal in the last season. Based on his form and temperament, the Chennai franchise picked him for the Indian T20 League as well. Along with him, the spinner Rangaraj Suthesh did well last season. The youngster picked up 12 wickets from 9 matches last year and was the third highest wicket-taker in the tournament. The Dragons look like a formidable side on paper and should do well when they challenge the Warriors. Look out for Mani Bharathi, who can play a deadly knock at any point.

Nidhish Rajagopal, the youngster in the Warrior’s camp can be very dangerous for the Warriors. He finished the last season with 306 runs in just 9 matches and if he manages to replicate his last year’s performance, the boy can soon get a contract from any Indian T20 league team. Along with him, P Saravana Kumar, the pacer in the camp can be very dangerous. He was in sublime form in the domestic tournaments and played well in the last edition of the league. Also, look out for Captain Rahil Shah. He can be really economical and has the ability to pick wickets at crucial junctures of the match.
