Mumbai vs Himachal Pradesh Chances of Winning
Mumbai’s batters and bowlers alike were no match for Rajasthan in the last game where the former posted 254 runs on the board while batting first. Openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Musheer Khan were the top contributors with 67 and 49 runs, respectively. However, the bowlers allowed the opposition to pile on a whopping 617 runs during their chase. This put Mumbai under immense pressure, and in the second innings with the bat they scored 269 runs. The match ultimately concluded in a draw, though, as the sides reached the end of day four.
Himachal Pradesh were also not particularly impressive in their last game against Hyderabad, despite scoring 319 runs while batting first. Akash Vasisht went guns blazing to score 118 runs while the rest of the batters made adequate contributions. The bowlers managed to keep their rivals to 278 runs, and that allowed the Ankush Bains-led team to notch up an additional 303 runs. However, they failed to defend this target which handed them a four-wicket defeat in the end.
