Considering the team combination, Dindigul Dragons is expected to win this match.

The Kovai Kings are in really good form this season. They are yet to be beaten and Shivam Singh in particular looks a class apart. They do have a challenge now though given the experience in Dindigul’s bowling line-up making it an interesting match-up with two teams looking good on balance.
