Tamil Nadu vs Himachal Pradesh match preview

Tamil Nadu have been clinical in the tournament so far, having won all five matches they played in the group stage. The Dinesh Karthik-led side has been brilliant in all three facets of the game as they have dominated their opponents in all the matches. Tamil Nadu will look to continue their ruthless brand of cricket and beat Himachal in the quarter-final.

On the other hand, Himachal Pradesh sprung a surprise by displaying impressive performances in the league stage.

Tamil Nadu vs Himachal Pradesh pitch report and Ahmedabad weather forecast

The Ahmedabad pitch is known to favour the batsmen and run-scoring is relatively easier at the venue. In the 12 domestic T20 matches played at the venue, the sides batting first have won six matches whereas the chasing team has emerged victorious on five occasions. The average score here while batting first is 163. The captain winning the toss in this high-pressure match should look to bat first, put up a big score and defend the target.

The conditions will be cool and the humidity will range between 25-40%. There will be no cloud cover during the game which means fans are in for an uninterrupted and a thrilling quarter-final.
