Editor’s Pick(TNPL): Dindigul Dragons - Karaikudi Kaalai

By
Tuti Patriots is really on a roll. Six wins from six matches. That could be a record so far. Dindigul Dragons and Karaikudi Kaalai stand neck to neck with two wins from five matches. The factor that puts them apart is the ever-threatening Net Run Rate. The Dragons have the edge with a higher NRR of +0.6790. Kaalai is fifth on the table with -0.1320. Now, while it does not take much to tip the scale in their favour, but Kaalai have to win the match first.

If Karaikudi Kaalai have to win, S Aniruddha, must give it his all. He has played phenomenally so far, with consistent performance. The team will depend on him. S Badrinath and M Shahjahan also have the potential.

Let’s take a look one possible lineup for the match today.

Batsmen
Ashwin Venkat
S Badrinath
M Shajahan
Ganga Sridhar
S Aniruddha
Bowlers

India-NZ. As it happened.

And the series is leveled. Well. We saw the ODI series level. The third and final match was more than a blast. Despite having a ton of runs on the scoreboard, the match and the series could have gone either way. That was the best part of it. Course it was a world of entertainment for all cricket fans. Honestly even a third party not emotionally vested in the two teams could watch and appreciate the demonstration of fine cricket. Now the T20 series is looking the same way. India won the first match and NZ came back strong and hard in the second match. The match deciding the fate of the tournament is on 7th November. Boy are we interested or what. Let’s see what happened in the second match now.

New Zealand won the toss and decided to bat. A supreme not out 58 ball 109 runs by Colin Munro took New Zealand to the path of destruction. I mean look at the strike rate - 187.93. That is a mind blowing number. The other batsmen didn’t do that bad either. Martin Guptil’s 45 runs from 41 deliver…

Peshawar Zalmi vs Multan Sultans - Post Match Blog.

By
The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Ain't it true. Newcomers Sultans thrash Peshawar Zalmi by 7 wickets in PSL 2018 opener sending shockwaves through the league. Being a defending champion did take a toll on Peshawar Zalmi. Not easy walking into a tournament with everyone looking at you assuming you will win.


When the Sultans came in to bat, they had an early upset when they lost the opener for a duck. With a target of 152, it took the experienced Kumara Sangakkara to set the ship on course towards the target. He was calm and composed as he has been throughout his international career. Singles and doubles. And planned boundaries. By the time he was out, caught behind, the team was fairly stable. Shoaib Malik’s captain knock along with Kieron Pollard finished the match in style.
Earlier in the day, Peshawar Zalmi came in to bat. Apart from Mohammad Hafeez’s 59, with twenty-something runs from Dwayne Smith and Darren Sammy; the rest of the batsmen barely contributed. Like I s…
