Chhattisgarh vs Goa Match Prediction

Chhattisgarh and Goa will be clashing against each other in the Elite Group C at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium, Raipur. The match will commence from January 24 and the action will kick off from 9:30 AM IST.

Bet on Ranji Trophy

Chhattisgarh are placed sixth in Group C at 13 points after two wins and four defeats. Their quarter-finals qualification chances are over. However, Goa still has a chance, but a very difficult one. A win in their final group match will take them to 24 and that will place them just behind table-toppers Karnataka (29). However, that will only be possible if Jharkhand (23), Kerala (20) and Rajasthan (20) lose their respective final group game.

The match is a high-octane one for Goa and many superlative performances seem to be on cards.

Chhattisgarh vs Goa Match Chance of Winning

Chhattisgarh have now lost four matches in a row and their chances of beating Goa are low again. Goa have been nothing less than impressive this season. Despite their chances of qualifying for the quarter-finals being very low, they are looking all set to end their campaign on a high. Just one defeat in six matches speaks a lot about their performance this season. They in fact stunned a strong Kerala side by a seven wicket win over them.

Goa have performed decently in both the departments of the game. Suyash Prabhudessai is the leading run-scorer with 440 runs at an average of 48.88. Darshan Misal (384), Snehal Kauthankar (260), Eknath Kerkar (284), Ishaan Gadekar (202 runs in three matches at an average of 50.50) and a few others have give solid support to Prabhudessai. The bowling unit has also been good with their job. Left-arm spinner Darshan Misal is the leading run-scorer with 21 scalps, off-spinner Mohit Redkar has picked 18 wickets, pacers Lakshay Garg and Arjun Tendulkar have picked 12 wickets apiece.

For Chhattisgarh, Amandeep Khare (584) is the leading run-scorer. Apart from him, only Harpreet Singh (324) has scored more than 250 runs. Apart from these two, Ashutosh Singh has looked impressive with 214 runs in three matches at an average over 50. Leave three three batters, and the team has not a single player who is averaging over 30 and has scored over 200 runs at the same time. Chhattisgarh have been bowled out thrice inside 200 in their last three matches. There is over-dependence on left-arm spinner Ajay Mandal (30) and pacer Ravi Kiran (21) and because of the same reason oppositions have found opportunity to bounce back despite crumbling in one of their two innings in the match.

Goa are also entering the match on the back of an innings and 4-run win over Services. In this must-win game for them, they will surely come all guns blazing against an under-pressure Chhattisgarh.

Our Prediction

Goa are the favourites to win the upcoming match against Chhattisgarh. The side has lost just one match so far and this must-win match they are expected to leave no stones unturned. Chhattisgarh have plenty of problems to deal with. They have now lost four consecutive matches and the lopsided batting unit has collapsed time and again. The team has been dismissed under scores of 200 on three occasions in their last three matches. The bowling department has time and again failed to capitalise on the opportunity and given oppositions that room to bounce back. On the flip side, Goa will enter the match on the back of a massive win against Services. Earlier, they defeated Kerala and played draws against very strong opponents in Rajasthan, Jharkhand and Group C table-toppers Kerala. They have shown character as well. The side lost to Puducherry by nine wickets but recollected themselves quickly to thrash Services by an innings and four runs in the following match. With a possible semi-final berth in the line, Goa look set to pick their third win of the season.

Chhattisgarh vs Goa Tournament Prediction & Betting Tips 2022

Chhattisgarh opened their campaign with a promising 8-wicket win over Jharkhand but failed to win any of their next two matches against Tamil Nadu and Delhi later. They finished second in Elite Group H and failed to qualify for the knockout rounds.

The side is placed sixth in the Elite Group C in the ongoing season, and their chances of qualifying for the knockouts are over. Regardless, they would aim to end their season on a high by registering their third win.

Goa played a draw against Odisha in the first match, and then lost to Mumbai and Saurashtra by massive difference to finish their Ranji Trophy 2022-23 campaign as the bottom-ranked team in Elite Group D.

They have brought tremendous change in their fortune this season. They first played a high-scoring draw against Rajasthan and followed it up with two more draws against Jharkhand and Kerala respectively. Later, they shocked Kerala picked their first win of the season by a comprehensive 7-wicket margin. The following match saw them getting beaten by Puducherry by nine wickets. Goa once again picked momentum by beating Services by an innings and four runs in their last match.

However, their fate is not in their hand as they will have to beat Chhattisgarh in their last match and expect Jharkhand, Kerala and Rajasthan to lose their respective matches. All things taken into consideration, there is a very slim chance that Goa will move into the knockout rounds.

The fact that Chhattisgarh batting unit has also crumbled from time to time, Arjun's chances of emerging as the leading wicket-taker increases.
