Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Rajasthan

This is a one-sided affair. Rajasthan is a much better team in terms of batting and bowling. Rajasthan managed to win more games in the competition than Jharkhand. Jharkhand has a weak batting order whereas the Rajasthani bowlers will be exploiting that situation in their favour. In the last five clashes between the sides, both sides have won a game each. Having said that, Rajasthan will go in as match favourites for this affair.
