TNPL 2025 kicks off tomorrow, Shahrukh's Kings to take on Ashwin's Dragons in opener
Coimbatore, June 4 (UNI) IPL GT star Shahrukh Khan-led Lyca Kovai Kings will lock horns with R Ashwin's Dindigul Dragons in a rematch of last year's final to kickstart the 9th edition of the Shriram Capital-Tamil Nadu Premier League at the Sri Ramakrishna College of Arts and Science Cricket Ground here on Thursday night. Dindigul denied Kovai Kings a hat-trick of crowns (joint-winners in 2022), as Ashwin turned in a splendid all-round performance in a low-scoring contest to help his side secure their maiden title. Meanwhile, Chepauk Super Gillies, the most-decorated franchise with four trophies, will begin their campaign on Friday against iDream Tiruppur Tamizhans in what is India's longest-running regional T20 league. Adding excitement to Season 9 are the new-look squads following February's mega auction after the eight franchises were allowed to retain a maximum of five players each. Among the prominent movements were pacer M Mohammed to SKM Salem Spartans, left-arm spinner Swapnil Singh to Chepauk Super Gillies and toporder batters U Mukilesh and J Suresh Kumar to Trichy Grand Cholas, while all-rounder Vijay Shankar returns to Chepauk Super Gillies. With Sai Sudharsan picked for India's Test tour of England, exciting teenager Andre Siddharth will be expected to play a key role for his new franchise, Kovai Kings. At a press conference on Wednesay, Kovai Kings' head coach J Hariesh said his side will also miss the services of all-rounder RS Ambrish, away with the India U-19 team, who 'would have taken the No 6 slot.' Among other franchise news, all-rounder Washington Sundar, also picked for the England Test tour, will not be available for Trichy Grand Cholas, while former UAE wrist-spinner Karthik Meiyappan, who has now moved to his birth place Chennai, will don Siechem Madurai Panthers colours. All eight franchises appear balanced, given the reshaping of squads at the mega auction, and this promises exciting and close matches this season. 'Teams can look strong on paper, but what happens during the match decides everything,' Dindigul spinner Varun Chakravarthy said. It took Dindigul eight seasons to secure their maiden crown after runner-up finishes in 2018 and 2019, and the side is looking to extend their supremacy. 'We have a trophy to defend and make a statement this year by winning it two times in a row,' India spinner Chakravarthy added. Kovai Kings' skipper Shahrukh felt a good season boils down to the 'process that we put in place and the brand of cricket that we play.' 'It's a fresh start, really, because barring the five players that were retained, most of the others are new to the side,' Shahrukh, last edition's Player of the Tournament, said at the press meet. After a week in Coimbatore (until June 11), the action will shift to the Salem Cricket Foundation ground (June 13-19), followed by CSK ground in Tirunelveli (June 21-26) before moving to the NPR College ground in Dindigul for the business end, with the final on July 6. The 32-match season will also feature six double headers, with the afternoon game commencing at 3.15 p.m. N Jagadeesan (Chepauk Super Gillies, 2260) and Sai Kishore (IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans, 78 wickets) are the tournament's leading run-getter and wicket-taker respectively, while Shivam Singh (Dindigul Dragons, 364) and M Poiyamozhi (SKM Salem Spartans,16 wickets) topped the charts last year. Matches will be broadcast live on Star Sports 1 Tamil and Star Sports 2 and live- streamed on FanCode. UNI GV 2135

At long last: on the IPL, Royal Challengers Bengaluru's win
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) played the Indian Premier League's (IPL) inaugural game on April 18, 2008. It was a night that, however, belonged to rival Kolkata Knight Riders with Brendon McCullum's unbeaten 158 putting the match well beyond the host in its backyard at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. In the subsequent editions, the franchise with a fiercely loyal fan base, promised much, delivered little and had three runner-up finishes to show. Finally, the ghosts of the past were laid to rest when Rajat Patidar's men claimed the title with a six-run victory over Punjab Kings in the summit clash at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium on Tuesday night. RCB's triumph in the IPL's 18th edition was also a tribute to Virat Kohli's longevity. He has been with the squad since its first game in 2008. In a unit that featured stars such as Rahul Dravid, AB de Villiers, Chris Gayle and Ross Taylor in the past, Kohli has been the forever spine. The young lad has grown into a patriarch, and he has achieved enough and more with the Indian team, both as player and captain, but a missing IPL trophy, always rankled him. Finally that aberration has been corrected and there was no mistaking the relief and joy that coursed through him on a surreal June night. Patidar's assurance, Kohli's experience, spinner Krunal Pandya's choking spells, and Josh Hazlewood's sharp pace, all combined well while many others dished out cameos to keep RCB in the hunt through the latest IPL. Even if the cup proved elusive, Punjab Kings did remarkably well, especially its captain Shreyas Iyer; he will have a larger role with the Indian ODI team whenever Rohit Sharma and Kohli bid adieu to that format. Among the rest, Mumbai Indians, after a lukewarm start, surged back and found a berth in the play-offs, one that also featured Gujarat Titans. If the IPL was all about RCB's redemption song and Punjab Kings' chutzpah, equally, it mirrored the decline of a pedigreed outfit, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), which finished last. An ageing M.S. Dhoni could not stem the rot and former champion CSK will have to rebuild afresh in the coming editions. Having commenced on March 22, the IPL stretched interminably and a break caused by the Pahalgam terror attack and the resultant Operation Sindoor, forced a change in schedule. The IPL also highlighted talented players such as young Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Sai Sudharsan. As a sporting brand, the league is formidable but, as Kohli said, Tests are five levels above in quality and, hopefully, modern players will respect this reality.

11 die in stampede as RCB victory celebrations turn tragic at Bengaluru
What began as a day of rapturous celebration over the IPL victory of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) turned into one of crushing tragedy in Bengaluru on Wednesday evening when 11 people -- all aged below 40 -- died and 33 were injured when a massive build up of fans at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium led to chaos and stampede. The tragedy unfolded near the gates of the stadium, where thousands of fans had gathered to mark RCB's historic first title win in 18 years. Overcrowding and narrow passageways led to a deadly rush. Mr. Siddaramaiah admitted that while the stadium could hold around 32,000 people, well over 2 lakh had gathered there. Doctors attributed all the deaths to asphyxia, a condition arising when the body is deprived of oxygen, causing unconsciousness or death.
