MATCH PREVIEW     

It is the title decider in the Tamil Nadu Premier League 2025. The IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans will look for their maiden title as they take on the defending champions Dindigul Dragons in this game. The IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans defeated the Chepauk Super Gillies in the 1st Qualifier to earn a direct berth in this game. However, they will start with lower odds, having lost the last four out of five games against the Dragons. The Dindigul Dragons defeated the Super Gillies in the 2nd Qualifier. They have an experienced group of players and shall look to do well. It's a high-stakes battle, and we're all set for a nail-biting contest.  

IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans Preview      

Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore’s team will be fairly confident heading into this game. They have peaked at the right time and come here with five consecutive wins. They defeated the Chepauk Super Gillies by 79 runs in the 1st Qualifier to book a berth in this round. The side has a poor record against the Dindigul Dragons and shall start behind on cricket betting apps. Sai Kishore would like to beat the odds and take his team through to its maiden title.  

Tushar Raheja has made 411 runs this season, and he must deliver an electrifying start in this game with Amit Sathvik. Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore will look to steer the innings in the middle order and add runs with Mohamed Ali and Uthirasamy Sasidev. Pradosh Ranjan Paul and V Anovankar are good players, and the team expects quick runs from them in the lower middle order.  

The bowling attack got its act right in the last game, and the team expects T Natarajan and R Silambarasan to perform well with the new ball. Sai Kishore and Esakkimuthu A bowled match-winning spells in the last game, and they will look to repeat the same. M Mathivannan, S Mohan Prasath, and Pradosh Ranjan Paul add depth to this attack.  

Expected Starting XI for IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans     

Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore (c), Amit Sathvik, Tushar Raheja (wk), Mohamed Ali, Pradosh Ranjan Paul, Uthirasamy Sasidev, V Anovankar, S Mohan Prasath, R Silambarasan, M Mathivannan, T Natarajan, Esakkimuthu A (Impact Player)  

Dindigul Dragons Preview      

Ravichandran Ashwin's team has looked in good form in the playoffs. They won the Eliminator and the 2nd Qualifier to book their berth in the final for the second time in two years. It was a clinical show from the team against the Chepauk Super Gillies, where they won by 4 wickets. They have an experienced bowling attack and shall start ahead on cricket betting sites. Ashwin will look to get the best out of his players and take them to another title win.  

Ravichandran Ashwin has given good starts, and he will look to lay a strong platform with Shivam Singh. Baba Indrajith has been among the most consistent batsmen for the side this year and shall look to anchor the innings in the middle order with Vimal Khumar and Maan Bafna. Hunny Saini and Dinesh H are powerful strikers and add strength to this batting lineup.  

On the bowling front, the side needs early strikes from Bhuvaneshwar Venkatesh and Ashwin as their opponents are in excellent form with the bat. Varun Chakravarthy brings the X-factor to the bowling and must perform well in the middle overs alongside Ganeshan Periyaswamy. Sasidharan Ravichandran and Hunny Saini will aim to deliver a strong performance in their supporting roles.  

Expected Starting XI for Dindigul Dragons     

Ravichandran Ashwin (c), Baba Indrajith (wk), Vimal Khumar, Dinesh H, Hunny Saini, Maan Bafna, M Karthik Saran, Bhuvaneshwar Venkatesh, Varun Chakaravarthy, Sasidharan Ravichandran, Ganeshan Periyaswamy, Shivam Singh (Impact Player)  

TOSS: To Bowl First      

In the last four games, the side chasing the score has won three games. We have seen big run chases in the tournament and expect a good batting surface. Defending runs isn't easy at this venue, and both captains would prefer to opt for the safer option. We expect the side winning the toss to opt to bowl first in this game.   

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS      

The skies over Dindigul will have cloud cover, and we expect to see some assistance for the bowlers on this otherwise flat wicket. The ball will come to the bat nicely, allowing batsmen to play their strokes. The side batting first will target a score of 180 runs on this wicket to feel comfortable.   

OUR PREDICTION      

The IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans have done well in the last five games. However, their poor record against the Dindigul Dragons will be on their minds. The team must overcome this mental obstacle and perform well in this game. The Dindigul Dragons have an experienced bowling attack and have done well on the big stage. Both teams will be under pressure, but the Dindigul Dragons have a slight edge.   

Our prediction is for Dindigul Dragons to win
