TNPL 2018: Team of the Tournament

#4 Middle-order

Narayan Jagadeesan led Dindigul Dragons to the final

Although he opened the batting for Dindigul Dragons, Narayan Jagadeesan slots in at number three in this lineup. Apart from donning the wicket-keeping gloves, he also captains this star-studded team. With 396 runs at a healthy average of 66 and steady strike-rate of 130.69, the right-hander ended up as the second highest run-scorer in the season.

Among all batsmen who scored at least 50 runs in the tournament, R Vivek's astonishing strike-rate of 209.60 was comfortably the highest. Utilised smartly by Dindigul Dragons, the middle-order batsman hammered three fifty-plus scores and served as the quintessential lynchpin in their batting lineup.

At 37, Rajagopal Satish continues to make an impact. The veteran was instrumental in TUTI Patriots putting up a credible campaign in this TNPL edition. With enormous experience including stints at various national leagues, the right-hander stood out in tough situations. He slammed 233 runs at a majestic average of 77.66 and sparkling strike-rate of 182.03.
