Match Prediction

Despite the fact that DD have more wins than ITT and holds an upper place in the points table, they have had problems in their batting side in recent games. Their poor form with the bat makes them vulnerable against the in-form ITT bowling attack. As the Tamizhans have momentum on their side, they will start as the firm favourites to win this match.
