Sai Kishore (50) and Balchander Anirudh (51) shined for ITT in their win over BT. Among bowlers, P Bhuvaneswaran bagged four wickets for his team in the second innings. On the other hand, despite Shivam Singh‘s resilient 61 off 42 deliveries, DD fell 59 runs short of LKK’s target and eventually lost the contest. Saravana Kumar claimed two scalps for DD in the first innings.
DD are currently placed at the third position in TNPL 2023 points table and will look to sail into the top by registering a win against ITT. Meanwhile, ITT sits at the sixth position and will aim to carry the momentum from the last fixture.
Pitch report:
The SCF Cricket Ground in Salem has gained a reputation for favouring bowlers due to its unique characteristics. Considering the ground’s attributes and past matches, if a team wins the toss, they would probably opt to bowl first. Although the pitch conditions are expected to be favourable for fast bowlers, spinners will also become increasingly important as the game progresses.
Head-to-head record (Last 5 matches):
ITT won: 02 | DD won: 03 | No result: 01
