Facts:
- Uttar Pradesh’s only group stage loss in the 2024 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy came against Jammu & Kashmir.
- Veteran batter Paras Dogra, who was roped in by J&K this season, is the second-highest scorer in the history of Ranji Trophy cricket, behind Wassim Jaffer.
Jammu & Kashmir vs Uttar Pradesh Chance of Winning
Jammu & Kashmir had the last laugh in matches against Uttar Pradesh, having defeated them in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy earlier this month. They will be hoping to replicate that result in the one-day format in the opening match of the tournament. J&K had a poor season in the last edition, finishing sixth in the group after having qualified for the quarters the season before.
Uttar Pradesh, despite their loss to J&K in the SMAT, reached the quarter-final of the tournament with 5 wins in 7 matches. Their recent performances in the Vijay Hazare Trophy have been similar to J&K’s as they, too, failed to qualify for the knockout stages last season while seeing a quarter-final exit in the 2022-23 edition.
It is expected to be a close match with the 2004-05 winners slightly ahead in the odds.
- Jammu & Kashmir Chance of Winning - 40%
- Uttar Pradesh Chance of Winning - 60%
Jammu & Kashmir vs Uttar Pradesh Match Toss Prediction
While a 50-over match is yet to be played at the venue, the 2024 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy saw teams chasing end up on the winning side five times in seven matches. We expect teams to follow that trend and bowl first after winning the toss.
Weather Report
The rain has decided to make way for cricket to be played with Vizianagaram expected to be relatively dry on matchday. We can expect a full match, but players and fans will have to bear with the humidity despite the respite in temperature.

In the SMAT, he had the highest individual score of the tournament for his team with an unbeaten 85. Khajuria’s form will be key to J&K’s chances of making the knockout stages this season.

Jammu & Kashmir vs Uttar Pradesh Top Batters
Vivrant Sharma to be Jammu & Kashmir’s top batsman
The team’s leading runscorer in the 2023-24 season of the Vijay Hazare Trophy is our choice to be the team’s best batsman in the match against UP. The versatile left-hander has been in great touch in the 50-over format, averaging 60 in the last 10 matches. He will have the added incentive for scoring as he needs just 163 runs to complete 1000 runs in List A cricket.
Aryan Juyal to be Uttar Pradesh’s top batsman
Uttar Pradesh’s wicketkeeper-batsman Aryan Juyal was the team’s highest runscorer in the Vijay Hazare Trophy last season. His recent form is pretty good as well with Juyal scoring 220 runs in the shortest format of the game. The top order batter will be hoping to give his team a good platform at the start of the inning.
Jammu & Kashmir vs Uttar Pradesh Top Bowlers
Rasikh Salam to be Jammu & Kashmir’s top bowler
Mr. Consistency of the Jammu & Kashmir team, Rasikh Salam, is our choice to be his team’s best bowler in the match. The medium pacer took wickets in each of the matches he played at the SMAT while also bagging 9 wickets in just 5 matches in the Vijay Hazare Trophy last season.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar to be Uttar Pradesh’s top bowler
We are backing Indian international Bhuvneshwar Kumar to be the pick of the bunch of this talented UP bowling attack. He has taken 11 wickets in the last 5 matches in the format while also emerging as UP’s second-most prolific bowler of the SMAT.
