Vidarbha Cricket Association Ground

Vidarbha and Madhya Pradesh are poised to take on each other in the semi-final of the Ranji Trophy at the former’s home ground, Vidarbha Cricket Association Ground, Nagpur. The game is slated to be played on March 2, 2024, at 9:30 A.M IST.

Vidarbha vs Madhya Pradesh Chances of Winning

Against all odds, Vidarbha emerged victorious in their quarter final match-up against Karnataka where they were tasked with batting first. With a century from opener Atharva Taide and major contributions from Yash Rathod and Karun Nair who scored 93 runs and 90 runs, respectively, Vidarbha was able to post 460 runs on the board. This put massive pressure on Karnataka who ultimately failed to take the lead after their innings as they were bundled out for 286 runs. Vidarbha furthered their advantage by 196 runs, leaving Karnataka to chase after an imposing total. Vidarbha achieved victory by a substantial margin of 127 runs.

Madhya Pradesh’s quarter final encounter against Andhra did not seem to be particularly challenging as they elected to bat first and secured a target of 234 runs during the first innings. Andhra’s chase ousted their inability to catch up to the total considering their batting order came crashing down after scoring 172 runs. Madhya Pradesh used the opportunity to score an additional 107 runs but it barely took them over the line since Andhra was closing in and narrowly missed out by four runs.

  • Vidarbha chance of winning - 61%
  • Madhya Pradesh chance of winning - 39%

Vidarbha vs Madhya Pradesh Betting Tips

Madhya Pradesh to score over 27.5 before their first dismissal @ 1.85 (Parimatch)

Yash Dubey and Himanshu Mantri open the innings for the team and have showcased impressive form this season. They have helped secure successful partnerships for the rest of the team to build on, particularly in their quarter final against Andhra where they established a tremendous partnership of 123 runs in the first innings. In their last three matches during the group stage, they scored 5, 58, 57 and 54 runs. With the exception of one innings, they have consistently set up big scores before the fall of their first wicket.

Vidarbha vs Madhya Pradesh Toss Prediction

The pitch at Vidarbha Cricket Association Ground facilitates big totals and allows the teams batting first to put pressure on their opposition early in the match. The last three matches hosted here have panned out in favor of the side batting first as they have been able to establish convincing totals which turned chasing into a nightmare. It appears unlikely that the toss winner will risk fielding first.

Weather Report

Nagpur is expected to be very hot on match day with temperatures reaching 33 degrees Celsius. There is no chance of precipitation.

Madhya Pradesh Team Form

Madhya Pradesh’s performance against Andhra raises doubts about their true form given that they edged out a feeble victory which could be attributed to the opposition’s vulnerability.

Madhya Pradesh to have a better opening partnership than Vidarbha

Vidarbha’s previous three matches in the season witnessed them secure opening stands of 40, 28, 5, 0, 22 and 68 runs. They have been relatively inconsistent in their partnerships and do not seem convincing in their ability to add decent scores to the first wicket. Madhya Pradesh’s opening duo, Yash Dubey and Himanshu Mantri, have set up much more reliable first wicket partnerships in their last three outings, having scored 123, 24, 5, 58 and 57 runs. They have outperformed Vidarbha on multiple counts in terms of opening partnerships.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Vidarbha

Vidarbha’s convincing victory over Karnataka makes them the favorites to come out on top in the upcoming semi-final against Madhya Pradesh. They exhibited more prowess in their ability to secure better targets and curtail the opposition’s runs. Madhya Pradesh, despite having achieved a spot in the semi-final, are unlikely to advance beyond this stage after their close shave against Andhra.
