Kochi Blue Tigers vs Calicut Globstars Match Prediction

Facts:

Kochi Blue Tigers opener Sanju Samson scored 83 runs off 41 balls in his last outing against Alleppey
KM Asif of Kochi picked three wickets in his side's last match of KCL 2025
Calicut Globstars all-rounder Akhil Scaria scored unbeaten 32 runs and picked three wickets against Kollam on Monday

Kochi Blue Tigers vs Calicut Globstars Chance of Winning

Kochi Blue Tigers are the table-toppers in the six-team Kerala Cricket League 2025. They have won six and lost just two games so far. Calicut Globstars, on the other hand, are second with five wins and three defeats.

Calicut have defeated Kochi earlier in the ongoing tournament, and they once again appear to have a good chance of completing a double against them. Kochi could be missing on the services of their trump card Sanju Samson, and that is bound to give Calicut Globstars a good chance to put pressure on them. V Manoharan is the only other Kochi batter, who has shown consistency.

On the other hand, Valicut Globstars have played as a unit. Contributions have come from all quarters. Their number seven batter Krishna Devan scored unbeaten 49 off 11 balls to take Calicut past 200 in their last match. They also have a solid set of bowlers, which is lacking in the Kochi line-up. Also, Calicut have arguably the best all-rounder of the league in Akhil Scaria, who is weaving magic with both the bat and bowl. The depth in both the departments is expected to help Calicut breeze past Kochi.

Prediction & Betting Tips 2025

There is a low chance of Sanju Samson playing in Kochi Blue Tigers' upcoming match against Calicut Globstars. He is set to leave with the Indian cricket team to the UAE for the Asia Cup 2025. However, if he plays then putting your bet on him should be a no-brainer. He was adjudged Man of the Match in his last match as he scored 83 runs off just 41 balls. The star batter is currently the second-highest run-scorer in the KCL 2025. He has scored 368 runs in six matches at an average of 73.60, and a strike rate of 186.80.

Calicut Globstars top-order batter Maruthungal Ajinas has shown good form since his last few outings. In his last innings against Aries Kollam Sailors, the 28-year-old scored 46 runs off 28 balls in an innings which consisted of three fours and four sixes. A fifty came off his bat in his second-last match against Trivandrum. Overall, the right-hander has scored 199 runs in seven matches of the KCL 2025. Expectations are high from Ajinas, and betting on him could prove to be a good decision.

Kochi Blue Tigers vs Calicut Globstars Top Batters

Salman Nizar to be Calicut Globstars' top batter

Salman Nizar did not play in his side's last match against Aries Kollam Sailors, and he is expected to be available for the match against table-toppers Kochi Blue Tigers. He scored unbeaten 86 runs off just 26 balls in his last outing which came against Trivandrum. The innings did not consist of a single boundary, but the ball went flying over the boundary rope 12 times. Nizar is currently the third-highest run-scorer in the KCL 2025. He has scored 296 runs in six matches at an average of 193.46.

V Manoharan to be Kochi Blue Tigers' top batter

V Manoharan has peaked in the Kerala Cricket League 2025 at a very good time. Sanju Samson might not be available as he is about to leave for the UAE for the Asia Cup, and the onus will be on Manoharan to score big in the coming games. He scored 23 off 11 with the help of three fours and a six in his last outing against Alleppey. The right-hander has had scores of 65, 42, and 36 runs in his three innings prior to it. Overall, he is the sixth-highest run-scorer in the KCL 2025. He has scored 262 runs in eight matches at an average of 32.75, and a strike rate of 166.88.

Kochi Blue Tigers vs Calicut Globstars Top Bowlers

Akhil Scaria to be Calicut Globstars' top bowler

Akhil Scaria's stature with the ball grew further in his side's match against Aries Kollam Sailors on Monday. He bowled four overs for 25 runs and three wickets. He picked three wickets against Trivandrum as well in his second-last outing. The pacer is the leading wicket-taker in the Kerala Cricket League 2025. He has picked 22 wickets in eight matches at an average of 12.18.

KM Asif to be Kochi Blue Tigers' top bowler

As per our prediction, KM Asif emerged as the leading wicket-taker for Kochi in their match against Alleppey on Sunday. He picked three wickets on Saturday evening as well. The former Chennai Super Kings pacer is the second-highest wicket-taker in the Kerala Cricket League 2025. He has picked 13 wickets in six matches at an average of 13.92. The 32-year-old could be amongst wickets once again on Tuesday.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Kochi Blue Tigers

Calicut Globstars are more likely to beat Kochi Blue Tigers in their upcoming ninth match of the Kerala Cricket League 2025. They met earlier this season as Calicut defeated a Sanju Samson-less Kochi by 33 runs. Kochi are likely to be without Samson once again while facing Calicut, and that would give Calicut a good edge. Calicut bowlers have also defended well in their last two games, and this makes Calicut a double-edged sword in the business end of the KCL 2025. Kochi have won their last three games, but have been made to work hard to win two of them.
