Nellai Royal Kings are favourites to win
The top two sides from the group stage, Nellai Royal Kings and Chepauk Super Gillies, go head to head in Qualifier 1 on Wednesday evening in Salem. The Royal Kings finished top of the table with six wins and one defeat. The Super Gillies won five and lost two. Read on as we preview this game. The match gets underway at the Salem Cricket Foundation at 19:15 local time.
The Royal Kings can be forgiven for losing one game in the group stage but the 5 run defeat to Lyca Kovai Kings means they are no longer considered unbeatable. They are very strong across all departments.
Chepauk Super Gillies won the tournament in 2021 but struggled to get going this year. However, they are now at full steam and will take some stopping in this match.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on Star Sports 1.
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on Disney Hotstar.
The rising humidity as the game progresses should be enough to convince both skippers to choose to field first if they win the toss ahead of this match.
Three of the last four completed games in Salem have seen between 16 and 19 wickets fall. We expect to see another pitch which favours the bowling units.
The temperature will be in the high 20s during this match although there is a strong chance of rain interrupting the contest at some point.

On Saturday, the Royal Kings lost their first match of the 2022 TNPL. However, they had won every game previously in this campaign.

These two sides were the standout performers of the group stage and were the only two to finish with a net-run-rate of over 1. The Super Gillies come into this game in the stronger form but they lost this fixture last year only to go on and win the tournament. We are predicting a close match with very few runs between the teams by the end. Overall we are predicting a victory for Nellai Royal Kings.
