The second qualifier of the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) 2023 will see the Dindigul Dragons take on the Nellai Royal Kings on Monday. The action will shift back to Tirunelveli from Salem where the Indian Cement Company Ground will host the remaining two fixtures. The winner of the second qualifier will qualify for the final to face the Lyca Kovai Kings.
Dindigul Dragons failed to directly qualify for the final as they lost to the Lyca Kovai Kings in the first qualifier on Friday. They were beaten convincingly and will hope to put in a much-better performance on Monday against the Royal Kings.
Subodh Bhati picked up a four-fer in the first qualifier but others kept struggling as the Kovai Kings posted 193 on the board. Chasing it, C Sarath Kumar played a brilliant cameo of 62 off 26 balls but it wasn’t enough as they fell short of the target by 30 runs.
The Nellai Royal Kings, on the other hand, kept themselves alive in the competition by beating the Siechem Madurai Panthers in the Eliminator. It was a thriller of a game in which they emerged victorious to eliminate the Panthers from the competition.
The Royal Kings posted a mammoth 211 on the board, thanks to fifties from Ajitesh Guruswamy (50) and Nidhish Rajagopal (76). The game went down to the wire and their bowlers held their nerves to restrict the Panthers to 207/4 to win the game by four runs.
