NRK vs SMP Team News And Injury Updates

Both teams would like to go in with tried and tested combinations so we predict no changes in the playing 11s of both competing teams. Washington Sundar is playing Duleep Trophy so he is unlikely to be available for SMP.

NRK vs SMP Head-to-Head Records

Nellai Royal Kings have managed to win just two out of the six games against Panthers but the Kings’ form in TNPL 2023 has been great. Nellai would be looking to pull one back when the teams meet in the must-win Eliminator.

NRK vs SMP Dream11 Top Fantasy Picks All Rounders, Batsman, Bowlers, Wicket Keepers

Ajitesh Guruswami

Guruswami has had a top run in the TNPL 2023. He is the fourth leading run-scorer of the tournament with 261 runs and will go into the Eliminator on the back of a stellar  56 off 29 balls in the last game against Trichy.

Arun Karthik

Arun Karthik is another batter who has done well in the tournament with 191 runs. Arun showed his beast mode when he scored a brilliant 104 against Chepauk Super Gillies. He will be looking to play another such knock.

M Poiyamozhi

With 11 wickets in 7 matches, Poiyamozhi has been Nellai’s best bowler. He delivered a good show in the last game and bagged three wickets for 25 runs in four overs.

Hari Nishant

Hari Nishant has scored just 168 runs this season which is not up to the standards he has set. Nishant, however, has started looking good and scored 34 in the last game. He may come good in the Eliminator and make up for his poor show in the league stage.

Gurjapneet Singh

With 13 wickets in 7 games, Singh is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament. He has been consistent throughout the tournament and another good show will be expected from him in the Eliminator.
