Nagaland vs Tamil Nadu Betting Odds

Tamil Nadu to have a better opening partnership than Nagaland

Nagaland and Tamil Nadu go head to head after both sides struggled in the opening game of the season. Nagaland qualified from Plate this season and they just struggled with the quality in the opening game of the season against the defending champions Vidarbha. Tamil Nadu’s defeat in the opening game of the season was one of the biggest shocks in the opening round of matches as they failed to show up against Jharkhand who eventually won the game by an innings and 114 runs. Regardless of the results, this fixture seems like a one sided game and we expect Tamil Nadu to register a comfortable win and also to have a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.

N Jagadeesan did not have a good game against Jharkhand in the opening game regardless we are going to back him once again as last season he was the standout batter for Tamil Nadu which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
