Their only loss was against the top team in their group, DCA Trivandrum. On the other hand, Combined Districts had a rain-hit season in Group C. Out of the four group matches, three were abandoned due to rain. They only got to play one full game, where they beat DCA Kollam in a thrilling super-over finish. Their recent matches ended in a loss, but considering the limited opportunities, they still managed to finish second in their group.
