A dominant win for iDream Tiruppur Tamizhans as they crushed Siechem Madurai Panthers by 9 wickets with 59 balls to spare, climbing to second place on the points table with 6 points. Earlier, after opting to bowl first, iDream Tiruppur Tamizhans bowlers struck at regular intervals and never allowed any partnership to flourish. The Siechem Madurai Panthers collapsed like a pack of cards and were left reeling at 77/8 by the 17th over.

C Sarath Kumar, who watched wickets tumble from the other end, held firm and anchored the innings with a valuable 31 before falling to Silambarasan in the 18th over. Gurjapneet Singh (13) and S Rajalingam (22), the number 10 and 11 batters, showed more grit than the top order, adding crucial runs at the tail. Rajalingam, in particular, came out swinging and smashed 22 off just 9 balls before being run out on the final delivery, lifting the Panthers to a somewhat respectable 120 in their 20 overs.

R Silambarasan and Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore bagged a couple of wickets for iDream Tiruppur Tamizhans, while T Natarajan, S Mohan Prasath, and Esakkimuthu A contributed one wicket to the downfall. In reply, Amit Sathvik and Tushar Raheja came out all guns blazing, giving iDream Tiruppur Tamizhans a flying start. The duo quickly put the game beyond the Panthers' reach. Although Murugan Ashwin dismissed Tushar for 40, the damage had already been done, with the openers adding 91 runs by the eighth over. Sathvik went on to score a commanding unbeaten 68, while Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore remained not out on 10, guiding their side to a thumping victory with 59 balls to spare.
