Hyderabad vs Maharashtra Ranji Trophy Match Prediction
Maharashtra will host Hyderabad for their 6th match of the Ranji Trophy 2022-23 on 17th January 2023 at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune.
Maharashtra has played 5 games in the Ranji Trophy so far and is currently in the 3rd spot of the points table of the tournament with 19 points. With 2 wins and 3 draws, they would be looking for a win in the next game against bottom team Hyderabad to regain their top position in the points table of the Ranji Trophy 2022-23.
Batting first, Maharashtra was able to score 446 runs in their first innings. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Azim Kazi continued their amazing form throughout the test match. Ruturaj Gaikwad scored 195 runs, while Azim Kazi piled up 88 runs in the first innings for Maharashtra. Maharashtra then restricted Tamil Nadu to 404 runs in their first innings. P C Dadhe and Rajvardhan Hangargekar were the reason to stop Tamil Nadu from scoring more runs than Maharashtra as they picked up 3 wickets each. Ankit Bawne scored 152 runs, while Azim Kazi again played a remarkable knock of 103 runs in the second innings for which he was awarded Man of the Match. Maharashtra played throughout the 4th day and ended the match with a draw.
Hyderabad on the other hand is already out of the tournament and is currently at the bottom of the table. They have 1 draw match and 4 losses against Andhra Pradesh, Saurashtra, Assam and Mumbai this season of the Ranji Trophy 2022-23. Hyderabad currently has just 1 point in its bag.
Hyderabad was bowled out at just 79 runs in their first innings by Saurashtra in their previous fixture. Rohit Rayudu scored just 23 runs in the first innings and was their best batsman. With the help of Aniketh Reddy’s 7 wickets, Hyderabad restricted Saurashtra to 327 runs. Hyderabad lost the match by an inning and 57 runs as they were bundled up at just 191 runs in their second innings by Saurashtra.
Tholkhanti Goud and Chandan Sahani scored 58 and 49 runs respectively in the second innings. Nevertheless, Hyderabad would hope to forget their past performances for the next game to register their first win in the Ranji Trophy 2022-23 against Maharashtra.

Hyderabad vs Maharashtra Match Toss Prediction
The Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune surface is generally known for helping the spin bowlers because it is made up of black soil. As seen in the previous match of Maharashtra vs Tamil Nadu, the batters were able to play their shots easily which makes this surface a batting paradise but playing for too long has drawn both the previous Ranji Trophy matches at this venue. The toss-winning team should opt to bat first as the dew can play an important factor later on in the game.
Weather Report
The weather in Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune is forecasted to be bright and sunny which will be perfect for a game of cricket. We can expect full gameplay and no loss of overs due to the rains.

Hyderabad Team Form
Hyderabad has been in terrible form this Ranji Trophy as they haven’t won a single game till date. They are now eliminated from this season’s Ranji Trophy 2022-2. They have disappointed everyone by showing poor performance in all departments of the game. It will take a team effort from their side to beat Maharashtra.
Captain Tanmay Agarwal would once again need to fire up and score some runs for the team hoping that other batters will also join him. T Ravi Teja and Aniketh Reddy need to continue their top bowling form to make their team win their first match of the 2022-23 Ranji Trophy season.

Maharashtra Team Form
Ankit Bawne led Maharashtra to draw their previous match against Tamil Nadu with the help of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Azim Kazi. We are predicting Maharashtra to win the next fixture and make a comeback in the Ranji Trophy to regain their top spot in the points table.
Kedar Jadhav has announced his arrival in style once again as we saw him score a half-century in the first innings for Maharashtra. He was seen in tremendous form with the bat so has Azim Kazi. PC Dadhe and SS Bachhav are doing great with the ball for Maharashtra.
There is no doubt Maharashtra can still be at the top of the Elite Group B table after winning against Hyderabad.
Players to watch out for - Ruturaj Gaikwad, Kedar Jadhav and PC Dadhe.

Hyderabad vs Maharashtra Top Team Batsman
Ruturaj Gaikwad played brilliantly once again and we know how consistent he can be. He failed to reach the 200 mark in the previous match falling just 5 runs short. We expect him to score big this time as well.
Tanmay Agarwal is the top scorer for Hyderabad this season and it’s clear to pick him as the top batsman from the Hyderabad team.
Hyderabad vs Maharashtra Top Team Bowlers
You should never bet against the men in form. For Maharashtra, it is Ashay Palkar. He has scalped 15 wickets in the last four games and there is no stopping him.
T Ravi Teja is our top bowler pick from the Hyderabad panel.
