DDD Team News
Led by Ravichandran Ashwin, who batted at number three and bowled the final over, Dindigul Dragons could stick with their well-balanced winning team – though they will expect more runs from their middle order on this occasion.
DDD Key Players
Ravichandran Ashwin: The Indian international and Dindigul captain top-scored with 37 in the last match of TNPL 2019, while his economical bowling – and the unusual action he showcased in the opening game – make him a dangerous bowler too.
M Silambarasan: It was the spinner’s excellent 4-13 from three overs which bowled the Dragons to victory last time out. He also took 3-23 when these teams last met, in the 2018 final.
Narayan Jagadeesan: While no longer captain, the Tamil Nadu wicket-keeper remains a key part of the batting line-up. He scored a half-century in last year’s final.
DDD Team Form
Dindigul Dragons lost in the final to Siechem Madurai Panthers in last year’s competition, having earlier beaten them in the group stage and the first play-off. They could only post 117 on their way to a seven-wicket loss in the final.
