Tamil Nadu faces Chandigarh in Ranji Trophy Elite Group D fixture
The Tamil Nadu men's team seeks a third consecutive victory when they play Chandigarh at the Sector-16 Stadium from Monday.
Tamil Nadu will play Chandigarh in an Elite Group D Ranji Trophy match at the Sector-16 Stadium starting on Monday, according to The Hindu and Sportstar. The southern side currently holds second place on the table with 14 points from three matches.
The team, led by Sai Kishore, recently secured consecutive wins against Uttarakhand and Railways in Chennai. This follows a poor performance in their season opener against Rajasthan in Jaipur.
Chandigarh, captained by Manan Vohra, sits seventh in the standings with one point from three matches and remains without a win. This fourth-round match is the final game for both sides before the red-ball competition pauses for white-ball tournaments.
Tamil Nadu head coach Yo Mahesh stated that his players aim to secure a third straight win. He noted that the bowling attack intends to take 20 wickets regardless of the pitch conditions, adding that they will adjust their plans and combinations if the surface is too flat.
The match follows a previous Chandigarh fixture against Himachal Pradesh where 1,244 runs were scored for the loss of only 11 wickets.
