Next up is match 6 of the Siechem Tamil Nadu Premier League 2025 (TNPL). The current table toppers and 4-time champions, Chepauk Super Gillies, are all set to go on a collision course against the fourth-placed Nellai Royal Kings at the SNR College Cricket Ground in Coimbatore.
Chepauk Super Gillies is one of the most decorated teams in the history of TNPL. Their four titles speak volumes for their skills, ability, and the dominance they have had over the years. However, one team that has had their numbers in the past is the Nellai Royal Kings. Arun karthik’s NRK has had the mettle over CSG in the past when it comes to head-to-head contest. Having played against each other 5 times in the past, NRK has beaten CSG four times, whereas the latter has won only once.
This stat might boost NRK’s chances heading into this game. However, the way CSG defeated ITT in the last game, writing off the Baba Aparajith-led side could be a blunder.
Let’s delve deeper into this post for the CSG vs NRK Dream11 prediction.
