KCL 2025: AKS vs CG Match 1 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket, Head to Head

On Thursday, August 21, 2025, the Kerala Cricket League 2025 Match 1 between the Aries Kollam Sailors and Calicut Globstars would take place at Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram. Last season, the Kollam-based team defeated Calicut in all three of its meetings.

Additionally, they defeated Calicut to capture their first title last year after winning eight of the ten games in the league phase. The leading scorer, with 423 runs from 11 innings, was captain Sachin Baby. The team will try to perform at its peak once more in order to kick off a new season strong. Additionally, Calicut, the 2024 instalment's runners-up, made a strong tournament debut in the first season. Despite their best efforts during the event, they lost in the final. This season, they will also be trying to start strong.
