Match Review

     On Friday, July 29, at the SNR College Cricket Ground, Coimbatore, Lyca Kovai Kings and Nellai Royal Kings played in the Qualifier 2 match of the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) 2022. 

     Lyca Kovai Kings started off strong but slowed down after the powerplay and Shahrukh's exit gave the innings new life. Sai Sudarshan began to bat more freely with his captain, and the two quickly put together a 50-plus run stand to restart the chase. 

     In the 19th over, Manikandan thought he had the Kovai Kings skipper caught, but instead cut the side crease with his back leg. As they still required more than 20, that was a crucial time. 

     The fact that the Royal Kings had to bowl Sri Neranjan for the final over because Davidson was hurt and he couldn't hold on to 16 runs didn't help either.

     Nellai Royal Kings have scored 208 for 6 in 20 overs (Sri Neranjan 34, Laxmesha Suryaprakash 25, Baba Aparajith 44, Sanjay Yadav 55, Baba Indrajith (c & wk) 9, G Ajitesh 38, M Shajahan 0, Extras 3)
