Jharkhand vs Chandigarh Chances of Winning
Jharkhand were in the midst of a tight tussle with Railways last time out before the match came to an end without a conclusive result. Jharkhand’s batters absolutely smashed it out of the park with incredible stroke-making, particularly the likes of Virat Singh, Ishan Kishan and Nazim Siddiqui who anchored the innings with individual scores of 128, 101 and 96 runs. With scant totals from the others, the team were able to boast a first innings score of 417. Railways, though, managed to respond evenly by scoring 414 runs. Jharkhand attempted to extend their lead and put pressure on their adversary but a lack of time did not permit a satisfactory end to their match, resulting in a draw.
Chandigarh did not face much of a challenge against Assam which allowed them to recover from their defeat in the first game. Assam were bowled out for 266 in the first innings and Chandigarh took the lead comfortably with 374 runs on the board. Raj Bawa’s 146 was the top score followed by skipper Manan Vohra and wicket-keeper batter Mayank Sidhu who scored 59 and 57 runs, respectively. Assam snatched the lead back but only just as they were all out for 185. This was a no-brainer for Chandigarh who ended up finishing the game with nine wickets in hand.

Jharkhand vs Chandigarh Betting Tips
Chandigarh to score low before first dismissal
Arslan Khan and Manan Vohra are taking their time to bed in as the team’s opening batters and their progress has been rather slow. Shivam Bhambri took the skipper’s place in the second innings against Assam in their last meeting but it did not make much of a difference to their performance. Arslan Khan has been the weak link at the top, having been responsible for the fall of the first wicket two out of four times so far. Moreover, the team has set up totals of 35, 23, 9 and 0 runs in the last two fixtures, making it seem as though improvement is a bleak possibility.
Jharkhand vs Chandigarh Toss Prediction
Keenan Stadium served as host to three games in the last season of the tournament where the toss winners were decidedly in favor of batting first, having opted to do so all three times. It paid dividends, too, considering two out of three matches were won by the teams who set the target. The remaining fixture was won by the chasing side but it seemed to be an outlier given the nature of the pitch which is batting-friendly. Batting first will certainly be the favorite choice in the upcoming match as well.
Weather Report
An 80% chance of a washout is predicted at Jamshedpur on match day which will put a damper on the outcome while the temperature is expected to hover around 27 degrees Celsius.

Jharkhand vs Chandigarh Head-to-Head
Jharkhand and Chandigarh are set to meet for the first time in the Ranji Trophy and there is no head-to-head record between the sides.
Jharkhand vs Chandigarh Betting Odds
Jharkhand to have a better opening partnership than Chandigarh
Jharkhand’s opening partnerships have fluctuated a great deal in the last two games even though Nazim Siddiquie and Aryaman Sen have established themselves as the mainstay openers. Together, they have scored 7, 24, 93 and 13 runs before the fall of the first wicket. Although these figures are slightly on the lower end, they are superior to Chandigarh’s first wicket thus far. Arslan Khan and Manan Vohra have secured mediocre stands of 35, 23, 9 and 0 runs in their last two matches. There is no doubt that both sides need to amp up their performance at the front but as it stands, Jharkhand have the potential to outclass Chandigarh’s first partnership in the upcoming matchup.

Additionally, he scored a respectable century in the last game where he secured 146 runs, making him the top scorer of the match. He is absolutely the top choice for the next match as well.

Utkarsh Singh is the joint highest wicket-taker for Jharkhand with eight wickets in three innings. He was also tied as the second best bowler for the team last time out against Railways where he took two wickets in 13.4 overs. His average of 19.12 is among the best of the team which makes him the top pick against Chandigarh.
Jagjit Singh to be Chandigarh’s Best Bowler
