Who do you think will win?

Tap a team to vote.

We are backing Kerala with some confidence. At 66% to win, they are strong favourites, and Tripura will need their best game to cause an upset.

Kerala come in with the better form, having won two of their last five games, while Tripura have won one of their last five. They also have the upper hand over Tripura, winning 2 of the 2 meetings between the two sides that produced a result.

The toss could matter here. Chasing has been the better option at this ground, so the captain who calls right may well choose to bowl first. We expect a first-innings score of around 165, and anything well above that should put the batting side in control.
