Aries Kollam Sailors vs Kochi Blue Tigers Chance of Winning

Kochi Blue Tigers is the first team to qualify for the semi-final of Kerala Cricket League 2025. They have lost just two of their nine matches so far. On the other hand, Aries Kollam are occupying the fourth spot with four wins and as many losses.

With a semi-finals berth at stake Kollam are expected to come hard at Kochi, and have a good chance of beating the table-toppers in crucial Match 28 of the KCL 2025. The absence of Sanju Samson is bound to haunt Kochi. In their last outing, they lost seven wickets and took 19.3 overs to chase down a 196-run target. They lost as many wickets while chasing 177 in their second-last match in which Samson scored 83 off 41. These are not ominous signs.

The last match between the two teams was a high-scoring one. Sanju Samson saved the day for Kochi by scoring 121 off 51 balls which helped them complete the 237-run chase on the final ball of the match. Kochi relies heavily on Manoharan in the absence of the star batter, and that could be used as an opportunity by Kollam. There is a batting depth in the Kollam side, and the bowlers have also done decently well. Odds look in favour of the Sachin Baby-led team.

Prediction and betting tips

Jishnu A replaced Sanju Samson in Kochi’s last match against Calicut. The right-hander played an impressive 30-run knock off just 14 balls. With Samson unavailable for the remaining matches, he yes will be on Jishnu, and he will have abundance of opportunity because of his batting position. High rewards are expected if you bet on Jishnu.

Abhishek Nair has emerged as one of the key batters for Aries Kollam Sailors. He scored 74 runs off 50 balls in his last outing. Overall, he has scored 225 runs in eight matches at an average of 32.14. Betting on Nair can prove to be a masterstroke on Wednesday.

V Manoharan once again showed form and chipped in with 30 off 14, while his new opening partner Jishnu A scored 45 off 29.

The pattern is expected to continue, and Kochi should once again score over 19 runs before the fall of the first wicket on Wednesday.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Aries Kollam Sailors

Aries Kollam Sailors should beat Kochi Blue Tigers in their second-last league stage match of the KCL 2025 on Wednesday. A semi-finals berth is at stake, and in the absence of Kochi's star batter Sanju Samson, Kollam would look to strike with full force. There is a better batting depth with Kollam, and that should be the main difference between the two teams. Kochi bowlers have also not been very impressive in the KCL 2025, and that should also work in favour of Kollam.
