After weeks of intense cricketing action, the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) 2025 has reached its final leg — the playoffs. In Qualifier 1, Chepauk Super Gillies (CSG) are set to take on iDream Tiruppur Tamizhans (ITT), with the winner earning a direct ticket to the grand final.
CSG, on one hand, have enjoyed a dream run this season, remaining undefeated with victories in all seven of their league-stage matches. Led by Baba Aparajith, the team has been dominant across departments, especially with the ball. Their bowling unit, spearheaded by Vijay Shankar, has been a major force. His all-round contributions have added significant balance to the side, making CSG one of the most formidable teams this year.
ITT, on the other hand, had a slow start to the campaign but bounced back strongly with four consecutive wins to secure a playoff berth. Under the leadership of R Sai Kishore, the team looks well-rounded and confident ahead of the high-stakes clash. With promising talents like T Natarajan, who has delivered crucial spells in the death overs, ITT certainly have the firepower to challenge CSG for a place in the final.

CSG vs ITT Match Details

- Venue: NPR College Ground, Dindigul
NPR College Ground Pitch Report
The pitch at NPR College Ground in Dindigul typically offers a dry surface with moderate bounce, making it a fair contest for both batters and bowlers. Batters who take their time early can find value for their shots, especially square of the wicket. However, the surface can ease down as the game progresses, bringing spinners into the picture. Seamers might get some movement with the new ball, but variations are key in the later stages. Teams batting first often aim for a score above 160 to stay competitive. Dew is rarely a factor, keeping conditions fairly consistent throughout the match.
