Defending champions Dindigul Dragons have advanced to Qualifier 2 after a solid six-wicket win over Trichy Grand Cholas in the Eliminator. They seem to be peaking at the right time and will be a tough side to beat from here on out.
Shivam Singh has been in excellent form, scoring 300 runs in eight innings at a strike rate of 140. He’s been their most dependable batsman at the top of the order. Vimal Khumar and captain Ravichandran Ashwin have provided crucial runs throughout the season. Ashwin, especially, has been in great touch with 275 runs in eight games, including a match-winning 83 off 48 balls in the Eliminator that powered Dindigul to chase 141 in just 16.4 overs.
Baba Indrajith and Hunny Saini have contributed occasionally, but Dindigul will need them to step up more consistently in the middle overs.
The bowling unit has worked cohesively, with Sandeep Warrier and Ganeshan Periyaswamy sharing 16 wickets between them. Ashwin has taken 12 wickets, and Varun Chakaravarthy’s nine wickets have helped break key partnerships and keep things tight when it matters.
