Vidarbha vs Rajasthan Prediction & Betting Tips 2024
The second-highest run scorer of the tournament, Karun Nair, set a new List A record this season. The 33-year-old top order batsman now holds the record of scoring the most runs - 542 - without getting dismissed. He got an unplanned rest against Mizoram as the team registered a 10-wicket win. We’re backing him to pick up where he left off when facing Rajasthan in the quarters.
Rajasthan’s captain Mahipal Lomror is in good touch with a hundred and a fifty in the last three games. He is the team’s top scorer in the tournament so far and will be expected to be among the runs once again. The 25-year-old scored 81 runs the last time the two sides faced and we expect him to go big once again.
Vidarbha vs Rajasthan Match Toss Prediction
Vidarbha have fielded first in all games so far and ended up on the winning side. In the group stage, Rajasthan lost both the matches where they batted first and won the five when they chased the target. The preliminary quarter-final, however, was an exception when Rajasthan managed to defend the total against Tamil Nadu. Despite that anomaly, we’re expecting the teams to play to their strengths and bowl first after winning the toss.
Weather Report
Teams are in for a windy day in Vadodara with a breeze of 13 km per hour expected during the match. The mercury is expected to hover between 16 and 27 degrees celsius.

Rajasthan Team Form
The team comes into the match on the back of a morale-boosting win over 5-time champions Tamil Nadu. The group stage, however, was a mixed bag of results for Rajasthan as they suffered two losses in seven games to finish behind Maharashtra in Group B.

Vidarbha vs Rajasthan Betting Odds
Vidarbha to have a better start than Rajasthan
Rajasthan have relied primarily on their bowling to get them over the line. While their batting line-up has performed admirably, they are notoriously slow starters. In the first 10 overs, they have lost 15 wickets in eight games, an average of almost two per match. In contrast, Vidarbha have lost just 5 wickets in their six games. In a match as crucial as the quarter-final, the start to the innings could be pivotal in how the match goes and we’re backing Vidarbha to have a much better first powerplay with both - the bat and the ball.

Vidarbha vs Rajasthan Top Batters
Karun Nair to be Vidarbha’s top batsman
Vidarbha’s captain Karun Nair has scored 542 runs so far in the tournament and is yet to lose his wicket. In the five innings that he has batted in, the 33-year-old has scored 4 centuries and is batting at a strike rate of 117. While Rajasthan will pose a tough challenge, Nair is in the form of his life and we’re backing him to be the team’s best batsman in the match.
Mahipal Lomror to be Rajasthan’s top batsman
Allrounder Mahipal Lomror is the team’s top scorer in the 2024/25 Vijay Hazare Trophy. The 25-year-old scored two hundreds in the group stage and has already proven his mettle in Vadodara with a crucial 60-run knock against Tamil Nadu in the preliminary quarter-final.
Vidarbha vs Rajasthan Top Bowlers
Nachiket Bhute to be Vidarbha’s top bowler
25-year-old medium pacer Nachiket Bhute has taken 11 wickets in 5 games in the tournament so far. He was afforded a rest against Mizoram after a 4-wicket haul against Uttar Pradesh. We’re backing him to pick up where he left off and trouble Rajasthan’s batting line-up at the Moti Bagh stadium.
Aniket Choudhary to be Rajasthan’s top bowler
Aniket Choudhary is Rajasthan’s highest wicket-taker in the tournament so far, having taken 14 wickets in six games. He started the season strongly with two 4-wicket hauls in the first three games. He could only get a wicket each in his next two matches, but took two crucial wickets against Tamil Nadu in the previous game to help his team qualify for the quarters.
