Both teams have had a disappointing campaign so far, but Kerala has been more inconsistent. Tripura has shown some promise with their batting, and their bowlers have been able to take wickets. Kerala, on the other hand, has struggled with their batting and bowling. Based on the current form, Tripura might have a slight edge in this match.
