Tirunelveli, July 28: iDream Karaikudi Kaalai have left themselves with a lot of ground to cover after suffering two crushing defeats in their last two matches in the 4th Sankar Cement Tamil Nadu Twenty20 Premier League (TNPL). Their challenge only gets bigger as they run into leaders Dindigul Dragons at the India Cements Limited- Sankar Nagar ground, Tirunelveli on Monday.

DD, the only team to have won all their three matches so far, are looking ominous with every match. iDKK, on the other hand, lost heavily by 110 runs to VB Kanchi Veerans and then went down by 54 runs to Chepauk Super Gillies.
