Thrissur Titans will be taking on the Calicut Globstars for the second time this season. Globstars successfully defended 183 runs in their last head-to-head encounter.
Calicut have won back-to-back matches and will be carrying the winning momentum. Their bowlers look quite threatening though the batting has been a bit inconsistent.
Arun KA is back in the side and back in form. That is big news for Calicut Globstars. He is a key player in the middle order. Titans’ successful run chase in the last match will boost their confidence coming into this match.
It came right after their loss to CG in the previous match. Thrissur Titans have some in-form batters in the top 4 who have delivered consistently in recent matches.
It will be a close encounter between two strong batting lineups. Calicut Globstars are ahead of the Titans in the bowling department. This could tilt the scales slightly in favor of the Globstars.

Thrissur Titans will be looking up to skipper Varun Nayanar and the middle-order batsman Vishnu Vinod. These two are the in-form and reliable batters in the top 4 who can deliver impactful performances for the Titans.
They’ve also got Ahmad Imran who scored a fifty in a losing cause against Calicut Globstars in their previous encounter. Akshay Manohar was sent ahead of Imran in the last match at number 5 and he scored 13 off 6 balls as Titans chased down 139 in 15 Overs.
The run-chase was quite impressive given how other teams are doing with the bat in the recent matches. They will pose a tough challenge to the opposition who’s not been consistent with the bat.
All they need is a strong bowling performance to make sure they gain the upper hand in this match. The Titans were expensive in their last match conceding 130 runs for just 4 wickets in 16 overs.
And in the previous outing, they conceded 183 runs bowling first against the Globstars. Pathirkattu Midhun, Abhishek Pratap, and Monu Krishna are the key wicket-takers to watch out for. These 3 have also been impressive with their economies.
There is a great variety in this bowling attack and if they manage to deliver more consistent breakthroughs in this match, Titans will be on top of the game.

Calicut Globstars will be eying their 3rd consecutive win in this match. They have got a strong middle-order that has delivered some brilliant knocks consistently and with a lethal bowling attack to the batting efforts, Calicut now look threatening.
Akhil Scaria, Akhil Dev V, and Nikhil M are the key wicket-takers who have been consistent for Calicut in recent matches. However, they are not the only ones finding success with the ball.
Globstars have also got options in the bowling department with Ajith Vasudevan and Pallam Anfal also delivering game-changing spells. Globstars are known for their middle-order strength.
M Ajinas, Salman Nizar, and Pallam Anfal can deliver impactful performances in the middle and lower-middle order. Calicut can rely on these 3 for crucial partnerships in the middle overs and a big finish at the death.
However, with Arun KA finding his form at number 3, Calicut Globstars look even stronger going ahead. Though their openers are struggling to convert their starts into something more significant, the contributions from the middle-order are reassuring.
Calicut Globstars have a well-balanced team with key players in every department delivering consistently. They will have a slight edge over the opposition going into this contest.

It will rain in Thiruvananthapuram on the match day with a high of 29 degrees Celsius. It is likely to stop raining around game time and we might have an exciting match between two quality teams. Preparing the ground can take some time and in the worst-case scenario it would affect the number of overs.
It is a balanced wicket where both batters and bowlers have found plenty of help in recent matches. There have been impressive batting performances from key players in both of these teams. At the same time, the bowlers have also delivered game-changing spells in the 1st innings. The average 1st innings score on this pitch is 140 runs in the last 10 matches. The last few matches have been pretty low-scoring and a total of 165-170 in the 1st innings would be a very competitive score in this match.
Both skippers will be keen on bowling first. The Titans’ recent wins came while chasing a target. Moreover, 7 of the last 10 matches in this league were won by the team bowling first. Calicut Globstars were exceptional in their last outing while bowling first and will be looking to continue that in this game as well.
It is a close contest between two equally matched teams. There is a lot of potential in both teams when it comes to batting. The top 4 of Thrissur Titans promise a big total whereas the Calicut bowling attack is all set to put the Titans on the back foot. It is a neck-and-neck contest between the two teams, and Calicut Globstars will start with a slight edge in our match prediction.
