Sitting in the annuls of the Elite Group A and B of the Rani Trophy, for Punjab, the opening exchanges of the tournamnet have been nothing short of a dream start. The side find themselves being spoken in the same breath as some of the most stalwart sides in the league after the first two rounds, a team which has stood tall amongst the 18 sides in the group.
It’s not only the fact that they have won both of their matches but rather the clinical and comprehensive manner in which they have come about which has augured extremely well for this Punjab side. The side ended up leaving Hyderabad aghast the last time around as they dominated them with both the bat and ball to comprehensively dismantled them and decimate them by an innings and 125 runs by bowling them out for a sorry 75 in the second innings.
Elsewhere, Vidharbha come into this one with a performance which was a short in the arm to the side as they sniffled a tottering and wobbling Rajasthan batting unit. Ripping into their opponent, Vidharbha saw no need to come out and bat again after declaring at 510 with Rajasthan mustering up a mere 260 and 190 in reply to hand over Vidharbha a behemoth innings and 60 run win in the affair.
Pitch Conditions And Toss
A surface which will be conducive for the pacers especially on the first day with the ball ominously rising and growing onto the batsmen, the team winning the toss is bound to come out and opt to bowl first here. The wicket does settle down starting the third day, something which will make chasing an extremely favourable narrative.
