TNPL 2019: Match 20, Dindigul Dragons vs Ruby Trichy Warriors: Dream11 Fantasy Cricket Tips – Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update

One of the hottest properties in the Tamil Nadu Premier League right now, the Dindigul Dragons will be on home turf once again in a bid to extend their unbeaten streak. The side has been doing a fabulous job in every department thus far and their 10-wicket authoritative win in the previous game was a testament to how brilliant they’ve been.

The Trichy Warriors lost in a super over to Madurai in their previous fixture and are yet to register a point in the tournament. They lost all of their four games and are in a critical situation in the points table.  A defeat here could end their aspirations once and for all this edition and it’d be an understatement to say their lives are at stake.
