Adani Trivandrum Royals vs Kochi Blue Tigers Chance of Winning

Adani Trivandrum Royals finished third in the previous edition of the Kerala Cricket League (KCL) after winning and losing five matches each in the league stage. They lost to Calicut Globstars in the semi-final. On the other hand, Kochi Blue Tigers finished fifth in the six-team tournament after managing just three wins in ten games.

However, Kochi Blue Tigers will still have a higher chance of winning against Adani Trivandrum Royals. Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson, and India wicketkeeper-batter for the Asia Cup 2025 will be leading Kochi, and that is undoubtedly the biggest attraction of the Kerala Cricket League 2025. The team also features another IPL and Kerala star KM Asif. Trivandrum got the better of Kochi in both their matches against them last season. However, the presence of a superstar like Samson is set to make all the difference between the two sides this time.

• Adani Trivandrum Royals chances of winning - 30%
• Kochi Blue Tigers chances of winning - 70%

Adani Trivandrum Royals vs Kochi Blue Tigers Toss Prediction

Winning the toss and choosing to field first was the trend in the Kerala Premier League 2024. However, in the first evening match of the KCL 2025 at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram, the team winning the toss could look to bat first. Players in KCL do not have a lot of experience playing high-quality cricket under lights.

Adani Trivandrum Royals vs Kochi Blue Tigers Betting Odds

Kochi Blue Tigers to score over 18.5 ruins before fall of first wicket

Sanju Samson is very likely to open for Kochi Blue Tigers alongside a very talented youngster in Jobin Joby. Samson is set to take these matches seriously because of the upcoming Asia Cup 2025. The wicketkeeper-batter has a knack of toying with the best bowling attacks in the world, and it should not come as a surprise if he ends up scoring 19 or more runs in the first over itself. Joby was amongst runs last year, and the presence of Samson is only going to motivate him further. In the first match against Trivandrum last year, Joby scored 48 runs, and Kochi's opening partnership accounted for 29 runs. There is a very good chance that Kochi Blue Tigers would score over 19 runs on Thursday.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Kochi Blue Tigers

Sanju Samson's Kochi Blue Tigers look all set to beat Adani Trivandrum Royals in the first evening fixture of Kerala Cricket League 2025. In a league where players don't have much exposure, Sanju Samson comes with an experience extremely. It's not just his batting prowess, but also the cricketing acumen which could make life really difficult for Adani Trivandrum Royals. Trivandrum finished third last season, but not to forget they have lost three of their last four matches, and would walk into the game with added pressure.
