BEN vs TN Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing-11 Updates for Today's Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2021 Match - January 18th, 2021
Tamil Nadu will look to continue their unbeaten run in the 2021 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy when they come up against an in-form Bengal at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata,in an Elite Group-B clash.
Tamil Nadu have won all four games in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy this season. They are coming into this game after beating Hyderabad by seven wickets and three balls to spare.
Hyderabad won the toss and opted to bat first, putting up 152 runs on the board courtesy late cameos from Tanay Thyagarajan 16 (6) and Milind 24 (11). However, in their chase, Tamil Nadu's N Jagadeesan and Dinesh Kartick rotated the strike well and got their team over the line.
Bengal on the other hand, couldn't continue their unbeaten streak in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, as they slumped to a 13-run defeat against Assam. Pritam Das and co kept their nerves and bowled good lines to keep the Bengal batsmen at bay.
Nevertheless, this T20 game could see a close contest as Bengal would want to go into the next round of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy without depending on other results while Tamil Nadu would like to continue their perfect start to the season.
