Both Dindigul Dragons and Madurai Panthers have four points to their name and will be eager to grab their third win of the competition.

The Dragons were brilliant in their last game as they got back to winning ways. They fired in unison against the Tamizhans, which helped them win the game comfortably. They will be riding with confidence after that win and the Panthers will have to be on their toes to challenge them.

Arun Karthik was the lone fighter with the bat for the Panthers in their previous fixture. Other batters will have to step up if they are to challenge the Dragons in their upcoming fixture.

It will all come down to handling nerves in crunch situations when these two sides meet on Thursday. The Dragons will start as favorites and expect them to come out on top in front of their home crowd.
