Tamil Nadu Premier League 2021: Full schedule, squads, venues, match timings, telecast and live streaming details

The 2021 Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) is all set to commence on June 4 with a total of 28 group stage matches followed by knockouts. The finals will take place on July 4 at the SCF Cricket Ground in Salem.

A total of eight teams will take part in the upcoming edition of the Tamil Nadu Premier League. These are Dindigul Dragons, IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans, Lyca Kovai Kings, Salem Spartans, Chepauk Super Gillies, Nellai Royal Kings, Ruby Trichy Warriors and Madurai Panthers.

The four venues selected for the Tamil Nadu Premier League are Indian Cement Company Ground in Tirunelveli, NPR College Ground in Dindigul, SCF Cricket Ground in Salem and SNR College Cricket Ground in Coimbatore

Tamil Nadu's biggest ground and the second oldest cricket ground in India, the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium, will not host any games in the upcoming season of the TNPL due to the rise of COVID-19 cases in Chennai.

This will be the fifth edition of the league. The winners of the previous four seasons were the Tuti Patriots, Madurai Panthers and Chepauk Super Gillies (twice) respectively.

The 2020 edition of the Tamil Nadu Premier League was canceled due to the pandemic.

Chepauk Super Gillies have been the most successful team in the league, having won the Tamil Nadu Premier League twice. However, they'll not get a chance to play at their home ground this season.

Let's take a look at the TNPL 2021 new schedule.
