The third round of Ranji Trophy games starts on December 27 and Gujarat is slated to take on Chandigarh Sardar Patel Stadium B Ground, Ahmedabad. The match will start at 9:30 AM.
Gujarat is coming into this game after a victory against Jammu and Kashmir in their last game. They had a chance to win their game by a bonus point as they were chasing only 11 runs but they lost their captain in the run chase and won the game by 9 wickets. Their first game of the tournament against Tripura ended in a draw. While on the other hand, Chandigarh lost their last game against the defending champions by an innings and 125 runs. They were behind the game against Punjab too in their first game but managed to draw the game after conceding the first innings lead.
Gujarat vs Chandigarh chances of winning
Gujarat will definetely enter this game as the fovourites as they will be playing on their home ground. Their captain is in fine form as he has already notched up 2 fifties and a hundred in 4 innings while SA Desai has 15 wickets with a 10 wicket haul in the game and two five wicket hauls. Chandigarh, meanwhile has struggled in the tournament as their whole squad has struggled so far. Gaurav Puri has scored a century but he has also bagged two ducks in 4 innings.
Our Prediction
Gujarat will be playing at this ground for the first time on this ground so it could mean that it might be a even contest but looking at the contrasting forms of the two sides Chandigarh will have to punch above their weight to challenge Gujarat on their home turf. They were bowled out for 57 and 127 against MP and Kumar Kartikeya was the chief arctichect in that game. Chandigarh will have to deal with another left-arm orthodox in the form of SA Desai and things won’t be easy for them.
- Gujarat to win - 1.55 (Melbet)
- Chandigarh to win - 2.30 (Melbet)

Tournament Prediction & Betting Tips 2022
Gujarat are currently 3rd in the points table and Chandigarh are on the 7th position. Gujarat have 7 points and Chandigarh have just one point. This season these two sides are in Elite Group D alongside Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Vidarbha, Tripura, Railways and Jammu & Kashmir. If Gujarat wins this game they will give themselves every chance to qualify for the next round which they failed to do the last season after losing two games out of three. Chandigarh on the other hand have a tough assignment ahead of them and they will have to play out of their skin to remain in contention. They will also need to be dependent on the other results to go their way.

Gujarat Team form
Priyank Panchal and SA Desai have been in top form in the tournament but the rest of the players have not been able to stand up. The likes of Merai and Het Patel need to score runs while SA Desai would also need support from other bowlers. Gujarat enters this game after defeating Jammu and Kashmir in their last match. They had a chance to win by a bonus point because they were chasing only 11 runs, but they lost their skipper during the chase and won by 9 wickets. Their first tournament game against Tripura resulted in a draw. Gujarat will undoubtedly enter this game as favourites because they will be playing on their home turf. Their captain is in good form, having already scored two fifties and a century in four innings, while SA Desai has 15 wickets, including a ten-wicket haul in the game and two five-wicket hauls.

Overall he has an experince of 108 FC games and has 7566 runs.
