Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2021, Tamil Nadu vs Goa: Probable XIs, match prediction, live streaming, weather forecast and pitch report

Tamil Nadu will lock horns with Goa in Round IV of the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy. Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow will host this Elite Group A fixture.

Tamil Nadu have been sensational so far in the competition, having won all three of their games. They defeated Puducherry comprehensively in their last game. After electing to bowl first, the defending champions did a fantastic job of restricting Puducherry to 129 in their 20 overs. On the back of a fifty from Hari Nishaanth, Tamil Nadu chased down the total in the 17th over with eight wickets in hand. They will look to carry the winning momentum forward.

Goa, on the other hand, lost against Punjab in their last fixture. It was a disappointing showing from them as Punjab completed a big win over Goa. The decision to bowl first backfired for Goa as Prabhsimran from Punjab scored a brilliant century. Punjab posted 197 on the board and Goa's batters could only manage to score 116 as they lost the game by 81 runs. They will be hoping for a much-improved performance in their next outing.
