Odisha vs Maharashtra Chances of Winning
Odisha lost for a second time in a row in their previous match against Mumbai. Their performance was absolutely dismal as they allowed the latter to pile on 602/4 before declaring. During Odisha’s chase, they scored 285 runs in the first innings, largely thanks to Sandeep Pattnaik who scored 102 runs while Debabrata Pradhan, Anurag Sarangi and Suryakant Pradhan were next in line with 45, 39 and 37 runs, respectively. Their second innings was even worse as they scored 214 runs before getting all out. They ended up losing by a massive margin of an innings and 103 runs.
Maharashtra lost their second match of the season in the last outing versus Services where their batting display was quite terrible. They managed to bowl out Services for 293 but fell short during their chase since they were restricted to 185. Skipper Ankit Bawne was the only one who did something productive by scoring 73 runs as he received no help whatsoever from the others. Services added 230 runs to their tally which made it very difficult for Maharashtra to catch up. The latter set out to chase for a second time and they made it oh-so close but lost by just 35 runs.

Odisha vs Maharashtra Betting Tips
Odisha to score low before first dismissal
Things have not gone Odisha’s way in the slightest since their first match of the season was abandoned. This applies to the first wicket, too, who have severely underperformed in the previous three games. Anurag Sarangi has been a regular at the front while his partners have changed but it has not helped at all considering the team has had scores of 3, 5, 4, 11, 0 and 7 runs before the fall of the first wicket. They are not expected to pull off a miracle in the upcoming match against Maharashtra.
Odisha vs Maharashtra Toss Prediction
In the tournament so far, one match has been played at Barabati Stadium between Odisha and Jammu and Kashmir where the latter elected to bat first. However, there was no conclusive result as the match ended in a draw. Batting first will remain the favorite option, though, since the surface supports batters and allows them to post high totals.
Weather Report
Partially cloudy conditions are expected at Cuttack with a lowly 10% chance of precipitation. The temperature is likely to hover around 31 degrees Celsius.

Odisha vs Maharashtra Betting Odds
Maharashtra to have a better opening partnership than Odisha
There has only been one occasion in the last three games where Odisha’s openers surpassed the single-digit mark for the first wicket. In the last three matches, the opening duo have added 3, 5, 4, 11, 0 and 7 runs to the first wicket. The team’s performance at the front has been terrible and although Maharashtra have had their share of low totals before the first dismissal, they have also shown that they have the firepower to do well. Siddhesh Veer and Murtaza Trunkwala have scored 5, 23, 26, 104*, 3 and 1 together in the previous three outings. There is absolutely no doubt that they are the superior opening pair in this matchup.

Suryakant Pradhan is the top wicket-taker for Odisha at the moment with six wickets in four innings. He was the second highest wicket-taker for the team in the last outing against Mumbai wherein he captured a single wicket in his 21-over spell. He is expected to come out on top in the upcoming fixture.
Hitesh Walunj to be Maharashtra’s Best Bowler
Hitesh Walunj has been Maharashtra’s most consistent bowler so far with 19 wickets under his belt in seven innings. He achieved his second fifer of the season in the last game against Services and added two more wickets to his tally in the second innings. Based on his present form, he is undoubtedly the top choice against Odisha as well.
