Test

Dadoji Konddev Stadium

Bengal and Madhya Pradesh will be up against each other in the fourth round of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023 on Wednesday, November 29th. The two teams from Group E will meet at Dadoji Konddev Stadium in Thane, with the match slated to begin at 9:00 AM IST.

Bengal vs Madhya Pradesh Chance Winning

It's a battle between two teams that are fighting for the top spot in Group E of the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy. Madhya Pradesh currently sit at the top with 12 points and a strong net run-rate of 3.739. Bengal occupy the third spot with eight points and a net run-rate of 1.346, having won two out of three matches.

Bengal suffered their first defeat of the tournament in the previous game against Tamil Nadu at Mumbai’s Brabourne Stadium. They were sent in to bat first in overcast conditions after the match was reduced to 38 overs per side due to rain. The Bengal batters just could not cope with it as Tamil Nadu’s Sandeep Warrier and T Natarajan ran through the top order. None of their batters could cross the 20-run mark as they were eventually bowled out for just 84.

Bengal did give some fight with the ball, reducing the opponents to 65 for 5 but they just didn't have enough runs to make a match out of it. Mohammed Kaif and Ishan Porel bagged two wickets each but it wasn't enough.

Madhya Pradesh continued their winning run with an 88-run victory over Punjab. Having been sent in to bat first, MP did not have a great start and had lost half the side for 99 runs. Rajat Patidar made 31 off 36 but could not make it into a big one. Akshat Raghuwanshi later smashed 62 off just 47 deliveries to help the team reach 177.

There was enough in the pitch for bowlers and Madhya Pradesh made the most of it. Arshad Khan claimed 3 for 9 in his four overs while Kumar Kartikeya bagged 3 for 20. Rahul Batham also picked two scalps as they bowled out the opponents for just 89.

Looking at the form and strengths of these teams, there is not much to separate them. The two teams' chances of winning this game are as follows.

  • Bengal's chance of winning: 37%
  • Madhya Pradesh’s chance of winning: 63%

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Madhya Pradesh

Both these teams look pretty strong on paper and have done well in the tournament. Both teams have very potent bowling attacks. Madhya Pradesh perhaps have a slight edge due to their batting unit. They have several in-form batters such as Rajat Patidar, Akshat Raghuwanshi, Yash Dubey and Himanshu Mantri. Our prediction is that Madhya Pradesh will win this match.
