Madurai Panthers are favorites to win
Match 16 of the Tamil Nadu Premier League brings Salem Spartans and Madurai Panthers together on Monday evening. The Spartans have played two and lost two and currently sit bottom of the table. The Panthers have won three of four and are in second place. The match begins at The SNR College Cricket Ground, Coimbatore at 19:15 local time.
Salem Spartans are at the foot of the table and have not won a game yet this season. However, they are three games behind some teams in the competition and they are not so weak that they should be written off ahead of this match.
Madurai Panthers look to be one of the serious contenders for the tournament this year. They lost to Nellai Royal Kings but showed great character to bounce back immediately with a win over Dindigul Dragons.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on Star Sports 1.
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on Disney Hotstar.
Bowling first is what all skippers have done so far in the tournament. Although you are not out of the game if you bat first, fielding is far easier in the early hours of the game and we expect both captains to field first.
This venue usually produces a wicket which allows for more of a contest between bat and ball than some of the others in the tournament. Spinners will certainly get plenty of turn from the surface.
The game will be played with temperatures in the mid-twenties under cloudy skies and with developing humidity.

The Spartans suffered a big defeat against Nellai Kovai Kings last time out and there will be plenty of shouts from their supporters to make big changes to the side. However, we expect Murugan Ashwin’s side to keep faith with the same XI as they try and get the squad familiar with each other’s roles.
Two defeats from two matches never looks good. Combined with last year’s poor finish, the Spartans are a distance from being a consistent side in this campaign

The Panthers produced an excellent team performance in their last game, Match 13 against Dindigul Dragons, which they won at a canter by 7 wickets with 4.3 overs remaining. Although they picked up three wickets via run-outs, all of their frontline bowlers impressed and we do not expect to see any changes to their XI for this match.
The Panthers are flying in the table in spite of their only defeat to Nellai Royal Kings. The dominance shown over Dindigul Dragons was shown in the winning margin.

After five games between the two sides in the TNPL, Salem Spartans bring a narrow one game lead in the head to head stakes. It was 2-2 before last year’s clash which the Salem Spartans won by 11 runs. Vijay Shankar scored 47 with Daryl Ferrario and Murugan Ashwin both chipping in with 30 for the Spartans who chose to bat first. In reply, the Panthers were restricted to 133-8 with five Spartans bowlers picking up wickets.

We think that Salem Spartans are a better team than the league table currently suggests. However, unluckily for them, they come up against the big-hitting and impressive bowling attack from Madurai Panthers in this game. The Panthers have quality throughout their squad and, although we expect them to lose some more matches this year, we are predicting a victory for Madurai Panthers
