Key Players

Rajagopal Satish

Rajagopal Satish is an old name in the Tamil Nadu Cricketing fraternity. He has been around for years, going back to the late 90s. At the age of 41, Satish is still turning out and enjoying his cricket in the TNPL. With literally nothing at stake for him, Satish and his experience could come in handy as the old player comes back to action in this SMP vs CSG game.

Varun Chakravarthy

Varun Chakravarthy didn’t have a great IPL. He was dropped mid-way and in and out of the squad with fitness and form issues. Now, back in the TNPL, Chakravarthy might go back to looking for new variations and will be using this time to find a new style of bowling that brings him back to his old effectiveness.

SMP vs CSG Match Prediction

SMP has some good bowlers with Varun Chakravarthy among them. However, given CSG’s batting in the first game, the contest is likely to be an interesting one with CSG having a strong chance of going ahead of SMP,
