USN Indians Preview
The USN Indians enter the tournament as defending champions, carrying momentum and confidence. Their campaign last year was nothing short of spectacular, capped with a thrilling victory in the final against Nainital SG Pipers. The squad this year is balanced, featuring power hitters, solid middle-order batters, and wicket-taking bowlers.
Batting-wise, Jatin Sharma and Sachin Bhati will play key roles at the top. Both are capable of scoring briskly in the powerplay and setting a platform. Mukesh Gupta adds stability in the middle order, while Bhavya Singh and Adi Khan provide finishing firepower. Binay Rawat is another versatile option who can contribute with both bat and ball.
The bowling attack looks well-rounded with Rajan Kumar and Naveen Rana leading the pace department. Vishal Kashyap, known for his wicket-taking ability, and the experienced Himanshu Bisht give variety and control. This mix of youth and experience makes USN Indians a formidable unit.
Dehradun Warriors Preview
Dehradun Warriors endured a tough 2024 season, finishing with just one win. However, they have revamped their squad with some exciting names, hoping for a turnaround.
Yuvraj Chaudhary will be their biggest weapon. He scored 322 runs in five matches last season, showcasing his consistency and explosiveness. Alongside him, Sagar Rawat brings stability and boundary-hitting ability. The likes of Aditya Naithani and Samarth Semwal will add depth to the batting unit, capable of shifting gears as required.
Their bowling relies heavily on Devendra Bora, who claimed eight wickets last year and was among the best bowlers of the tournament. Ritik Duhoon and Rakshit Rohi will support him in restricting opponents, while Yogesh Kandpal and Mayank Mishra could be key in controlling the middle overs.
Though Dehradun Warriors look stronger than last year, they’ll need standout performances from their top order to challenge the champions.
