Baroda went down by seven wickets in their previous game against Bengal. Having been sent in to bat first, the openers gave them a good platform with a 58-run stand but couldn't build any substantial partnerships afterwards. Shashwat Rawat made an excellent 95 at the top of the order while Bhanu Pania hit 42 before they were bowled out for 228.

Defending a small total, Hardik Pandya gave Baroda a breakthrough in the first over. They had the opponents three down for 71 but could not get through the next pair as Bengal finished the chase in with seven overs to spare.

Bihar, who lost the first two games of the tournament, stunned Delhi in the previous game by 17 runs on the VJD method. After the match was reduced to 42 overs per side, they managed to post 210 on the back of Raghuvendra Pratap Singh’s unbeaten 52 off 48. Bipin Saurabh also struck 37 runs in 16 deliveries.

Defending the target, Bihar bowlers did an excellent job and put consistent pressure on the opponents. Suraj Kashyap snared 2 for 19 in seven overs while Raghuvendra Pratap Singh bagged 2 for 28 in five overs. They had sent half the opposing team back in the hut and were 17 runs ahead when the rain stopped the play 24 overs into the innings.

Speaking of this encounter, Baroda will be favourites considering their strengths and weaknesses. According to the bookmakers, the two teams’ chances of winning this game are as follows.

  • Baroda's chance of winning: 80%
  • Bihar’s chance of winning: 20%

Our Prediction

Looking at the two squads, Baroda are a significantly stronger side compared to Bihar, who have serious limitations in both departments. Baroda have a formidable batting line-up, comprising Hardik Pandya, Shivalik Sharma, Vishnu Solanki, Ninad Rathva, Bhanu Pania, Krunal Pandya, and Shashwat Rawat. In Lukman Meriwala, Atit Sheth, Akash Singh and Pandya brothers, they have much better bowling resources as well. Our prediction is that Baroda will come out victorious in this game.
