Ba11sy Trichy (BT) and Nellai Royal Kings (NRK) will square off against each other in the last league stage fixture of the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) 2023 at the Indian Cement Company Ground in Tirunelveli on Wednesday (July 5).
Both SMP and ITT faced defeats in their previous matches. Trichy lost their last game to Chepauk Super Gillies (CSG), whereas NRK were handed over a defeat by Dindigul Dragons (DD).
Although Daryl Ferrario played a decent knock of 45 runs for BT in their match against CSG, he failed to get his team through in the run chase. Among bowlers, Ganga Sridhar Raju took three wickets for his team in the first innings. On the other hand, Arun Karthik top-scored for NRK and contributed 39 runs to the team total. However, Karthik’s effort went in vain as his team eventually lost the contest to DD.
NRK have confirmed their spot in the playoffs and will look to end their group stage campaign on a high. Meanwhile, BT had a disastrous season with no win in the TNPL 2023 so far and will search for their maiden victory in their last league stage fixture.
