KER vs PUD Dream11 prediction: Match preview

With the IPL auctions for 2021 looming in the not-so-distant future, the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2021 is sure to witness many up and coming players jostle for a place in the cash-rich league. On the opposite spectrum, a number of IPL players like Kerala skipper Sanju Samson, veteran batsman Robin Uthappa and pacer Basil Thampi will fight to keep their spots and go into the tournament in good form. The match will also be a highly anticipated one for another reason - it could see veteran bowler S Sreesanth make a comeback after 7 years. 

Both Kerela and Puducherry outperformed some of the bigger teams at the tournament last year and will be hoping to make it beyond the group stages this time around. Kerala finished fourth above bigwigs, UP, while Puducherry ended fifth out of eight teams in their group. Both teams will be looking to start of their tournament on a good note on Monday.
