Nellai Royal Kings Preview
Skipper Arun Karthik leads a side that’s visibly low on confidence after a heavy 41-run defeat to Chepauk Super Gillies. Their bowling was underwhelming and lacked penetration. With experienced campaigners like Sonu Yadav and Emmanuel Cherian in the lineup, the team will need early wickets to dent the Spartans’ batting unit.
The top order, including Karthik, D Santhosh Kumar, and Rithik Easwaran, must give a strong platform. The middle order failed miserably in the last outing and needs strong partnerships, especially from Ajitesh Guruswamy, NS Harish, and PS Nirmal Kumar. Their bowling hopes lie on Sonu Yadav, Sachin Rathi, and Valliappan Yudheeswaran to control the middle overs.
Salem Spartans Preview
On the other hand, S Abishiek’s Salem Spartans have looked the team to beat in TNPL 2025. Three wins in three matches have them perched comfortably at the top of the table. In their last outing, they chased down a stiff target with four wickets to spare against IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans.
Hari Nishanth and Abishiek form a strong opening pair, while Nidhish Rajagopal, Rajendran Vivek, and R Kavin have provided the necessary solidity in the middle. Lower-order power hitters like Boopathi Kumar and Sunny Sandhu add finishing firepower.
Their bowling is spearheaded by M Mohammed, supported by Sunny Sandhu, Rahil Shah, and ME Yazh Arun Mozhi. This is a well-rounded bowling attack capable of defending or restricting teams.

Salem Spartans:
S Abishiek (c), Hari Nishanth, R Kavin (wk), Boopathi Kumar, Nidhish Rajagopal, Rajendran Vivek, Sunny Sandhu, M Mohammed, M Poiyamozhi, Rahil Shah, ME Yazh Arun Mozhi

They’ve maintained momentum with both bat and ball and look settled with a strong top-order and reliable bowling depth. Players like Sunny Sandhu and Hari Nishanth have consistently delivered, while their bowling unit has contained even aggressive batting sides.
