Hyderabad vs Tamil Nadu Predictions & Betting Tips 2022
Team Tamil Nadu looks in great touch. They are performing in all departments. The team performed well in the recently concluded Vijay Hazare Trophy but lost in the quarter-final against Saurashtra.
Hyderabad on the other hand also performed well and won the same number of matches as Tamil Nadu in the league stage but couldn’t qualify for the next round due to lesser points.
We expect an intense four-day play and the match to end in the favour of Hyderabad. Hyderabad is expected to take the first-innings lead in their home ground and gain more points in this match.
We expect Hyderabad to win.
Hyderabad vs Tamil Nadu Match Toss Prediction
The pitch at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium is very suitable for batting for 2 to 3 days. Spin bowlers rules on this pitch as they get help from the pitch in the last days of the Test match because on the third and fourth day, due to the foot marks of the bowlers, the ball starts to turn more. Hence, it is a wise decision to bowl first after winning the toss. Remember, first-inning victory is also an important factor in Ranji Trophy matches.
Weather Report
The weather at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium is expected to be partly cloudy. There is a slight chance of rain. The temperature is expected to hover around 32*C and winds at 23 km/hr. The seamers might get some swing with the new ball due to the wind.

Tamil Nadu Team Form
Baba Indrajith and his men have the potential to turn things around. Tamil Nadu didn’t perform well in the previous Ranji Trophy under the captaincy of Vijay Shankar.

The bowling attack will be managed by Ravi Sai Kishore who performed brilliantly in the IPL. Aswin Crist is a player to watch out for. He has been phenomenal with both the bat and ball for Tamil Nadu.
