The Story in Brief
Nellai Royal Kings will aim for their third win of the Tamil Nadu Premier League season when they face VIDA Kovai Kings at NPR College Ground in Dindigul on Thursday.

The league also keeps regional cricket alive in an IPL-dominated calendar. The real test is whether franchises groom local talent or just recycle journeymen.
