Laiya Kovai Kings made light work of Dindigul Dragons with a 171-93 victory in the Tamil Nadu Premier League on Thursday. The hosts were thoroughly outclassed as the visitors opened a gap that never closed. It was not a contest for long.
Going into the fixture, Laiya sat third with eight points from seven games, while Dindigul languished seventh on four. The table told the story before the opening tip-off. Four wins against two for the hosts set the expectation.
The scoreline itself says everything. Laiya scored 78 more points than their opponents, a margin that reflects complete dominance. Dindigul could not string together any meaningful runs. The visitors simply ran out of legs by the final quarter.
Recent form does not flatter either side. Dindigul had lost four of their last five, including narrow defeats to Nellai and Chepak. Laiya's only blemish in that span was a one-point loss to Tiruppur, but they also produced a 201-85 demolition of Ruby Trish Warriors.
The gap between third and seventh now stretches to four points. Laiya can spring a surprise if they keep this up, while Dindigul are staring at the drop. The table goes out of the window in these games, but consistency still matters.
