Vidarbha vs Saurashtra Betting Tips

Saurashtra to score low before 1st dismissal

Saurashtra have a splendid line-up of batters in the tournament. They have displayed great potential with the bat in the deep order. However, their opening line-up has not been as impressive in the competition so far. Harvik Desai and Snell Patel open for the team and currently average at 38.33 & 5.66 respectively in the competition. The pair scored 27 and 16 & 3 runs before their first dismissal in three innings. Snell Patel was the batter to go out the earliest in all those innings. In their last meeting back in 2019, Saurashtra posted the score of 18 & 19 runs before their first dismissal in the two innings of the game. That said, Vidarbha bowlers are very likely to pick a quick wicket in the next game between the sides.

Vidarbha vs Saurashtra Toss Prediction

The pitches at the VCA Stadium have assisted quicker bowlers, but have mainly helped the spinners like most wickets in the country. Batters have found run-scoring a little easy early in the match. The skipper will opt to bat first here.

Weather Report
