Ujjain Falcons Gear Up for Crucial Match Against Chambal Ghariyals in MPL T20

Ujjain Falcons Aim for Redemption

The Ujjain Falcons are set to make a strong comeback as they face the Chambal Ghariyals in their third match of the Aditya Birla Group Madhya Pradesh League (MPL) T20 Scindia Cup 2026. This exciting encounter will take place on June 8 at the Holkar Stadium in Indore.

In their inaugural MPL campaign, the Ujjain Falcons kicked off with an impressive 92-run victory against the Gwalior Cheetahs, showcasing a stellar all-round performance from vice-captain Madhav Tiwari along with significant contributions from various team members.

However, the Falcons faced a setback in their last match, where despite scoring a solid total of 206, they succumbed to a six-wicket defeat against the Malwa Stallions, who executed a remarkable chase.

Key Players and Batting Strength

Captain Chanchal Rathore has been instrumental in leading the team, providing aggressive starts and setting a positive tone for the Falcons. His partnership with Madhav Tiwari, who has excelled with both bat and ball, has been a highlight for the team in the initial matches.

The batting lineup has demonstrated considerable depth, with players like Yash Dubey, Ojaswa Yadav, Aryan Pandey, and Rishi Miglani stepping up at crucial moments, similar to performances seen in international cricket. The Ujjain Falcons are counting on another collective effort from their batting unit to apply pressure on the Ghariyals.

Captain's Confidence Ahead of the Match

In a pre-match statement, captain Chanchal Rathore expressed optimism, stating, "The team has shown a lot of positive signs in the first two matches. We started the tournament well, and although the last result did not go our way, there were plenty of encouraging performances. We have learnt from our mistakes, and the focus now is on executing our plans better. Chambal Ghariyals are a strong side, but we are confident in our abilities and are looking forward to putting in a complete performance."

Vice-captain Madhav Tiwari echoed this sentiment, saying, "Every match in a tournament like this is important. The atmosphere in the squad is positive, and everyone is motivated to perform. We have played some good cricket so far, and the aim is to continue improving as a team. Hopefully, we can deliver a strong performance and get back to winning ways."

With one win and one loss in their first two matches, the Ujjain Falcons are eager to solidify their standing, while the Chambal Ghariyals are also looking to secure crucial points in what promises to be another thrilling match in the MPL T20 Scindia Cup 2026.
