Goa vs Gujarat Chance of Winning
Goa’s form has been oscillating throughout the tournament as they’ve alternated their 3 wins in five matches. They started off strongly with a win over Odisha but received a drubbing at the hands of Haryana. They bounced back with a victory against Manipur before succumbing to a loss against Uttarakhand. Their last match saw them narrowly edge past Assam, a sign of the tapering form the team is in.
What can one say about Gujarat? They are the toast of the tournament since day 1. They started their campaign with a win over defending champions Haryana and haven’t looked back since. Chintan Gaja’s team followed it up with wins over Uttarakhand, Assam, Jharkhand, and Manipur. With 20 points in 5 games, they’re virtually through to the next round barring an unlikely collapse.

Goa vs Gujarat Prediction & Betting Tips 2024
The KL Saini Ground has seen four sub-100 scores in the five matches so far with only one instance of a team crossing 300 - Uttarakhand in the first match of the tournament. Goa’s bowlers haven’t impressed at all in the tournament and hence, we’re expecting the Gujarat bowlers to do well.
The last time Gujarat played at the venue saw their captain Chintan Gaja take a 5-wicket haul. We’re backing the 30-year-old to be the best bowler in the match once again.
Keep an eye out on Gujarat’s 27-year-old medium pacer Arzan Nagwaswalla, too. He has taken wickets in every match he has played so far and we’re expecting him to be among the wickets once again against Goa’s unimpressive batting unit.
Goa vs Gujarat Match Toss Prediction
Four of the last five matches played at the ground have seen teams chasing to end up on the winning side. The captains would have noticed the trend and we believe the one that wins the toss will opt to field first.
Weather Report
The teams are in for a pleasant day in Jaipur with the mercury hovering around the 13 and 21 degrees celsius mark. There’s little chance of rain so fans can expect a complete game as well.

A patchy form for Goa so far this season has seen their play-off spots hang in the balance. In fourth spot in the table currently, the team has won three matches in five attempts with the two losses coming against Haryana and Uttarakhand. They come into the match on the back of a closely–contested win against Assam.

Gujarat Team Form
With 5 wins in as many matches, Gujarat are the team to beat this tournament. They started the season off with a win over defending champions Haryana and haven’t looked back since. Their most recent success came against lowly Manipur as they raced to an 8-wicket win.
Goa vs Gujarat Head to Head

Goa vs Gujarat Betting Odds
Gujarat bowlers to choke the Goa batsmen in Jaipur
Group A table toppers, Gujarat, are the only team to have three bowlers in the list of the top 8 wicket-takers in the tournament. Chintan Gaja and Priyajitsing Jadeja have each taken 12 wickets while Arzan Nagwaswalla follows them closely with 11. In contrast, Goa’s top wicket-taker has 6. The last time that Gujarat played at the KL Saini Ground, they bowled their opponents out for just 75 runs. Goa’s only match at the venue also saw a sub-100 score as they were bundled out for 92.
We’re expecting the Goan batters to put up a very low score considering the form the Gujarat bowlers are in.

Goa vs Gujarat Top Batters
Ishaan Gadekar to be Goa’s top batsman
The team’s highest run scorer so far in the tournament, Ishaan Gadekar will be tasked with scoring the bulk of the team’s runs in this difficult match. The opener has scored 3 fifties so far in five matches with scores of 83 and 93 against Haryana and Uttarakhand, respectively.
Aarya Desai to be Gujarat’s top batsman
Two fifties and a hundred in the last five matches has seen Aarya Desai top the run-scoring charts for his team. He comes on the back of an unbeaten fifty against Manipur to take his tally to 254 runs in the tournament, a figure he has achieved at an average of over 60 and a strike rate of nearly 100. The opener will be expected to give his team a good start once again.
Goa vs Gujarat Top Bowlers
Deepraj Gaonkar to be Goa’s top bowler
In a team that has struggled to take wickets, the medium pacer has returned in all but one of Goa’s matches in the 2024/25 Vijay Hazare Trophy season. With 6 wickets in 5 games, he is the team’s leading wicket-taker and will be hoping to increase his tally when they face the table toppers.
Chintan Gaja be Gujarat’s top bowler
30-year-old medium pacer Chintan Gaja has been a figure of consistency for the team. With 12 wickets in 5 matches, he jointly leads the wicket-taking charts alongside teammate Priyajitsing Jadeja and Odisha’s Rajesh Mohanty. What tips the scales in his favour is that he took 5 wickets in the previous match that Gujarat played at the venue.
