Ishan Kishan had an underwhelming campaign last season as he scored 176 runs in four matches with an average of 29.33, he scored 173 runs in the opening game which makes us believe he will score well in the upcoming game.

Vidarbha vs Jharkhand Betting Odds

Vidarbha to have a better opening partnership than Jharkhand

Vidarbha and Jharkhand go head to head after both sides dominated the opening game and would be hoping to carry on their form in the upcoming game. Vidarbha has been the best team in this tournament in the last few seasons as they have been consistent and it paid off last season as they went all the way and won the championship. On the other hand Jharkhand missed the playoffs last term but in the opening game of the season they beat Tamil Nadu by an innings and 114 runs. We expect Vidarbha to dominate this game and much like last match, they will end up with a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.

Vidarbha vs Jharkhand Top Batters

Yash Rathod to be Vidarbha’ top batter

Yash Rathod got off to a great start this season as he scored a half century in the opening game. Last season he scored 960 runs and was the leading run scorer for his side which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Virat Singh to be Jharkhand’ top batter

Virat Singh was the shining light in what was a disappointing campaign last season as he was the leading run scorer for Jharkhand last term. Even though he did not have a great game in the last outing, we expect him to bounce back in the upcoming game.

Vidarbha vs Jharkhand Top Bowlers

Harsh Dubey to be Vidarbha’ top bowler

Harsh Dubey was sensational in both innings in the last match as he ended up with six wickets in the game. Dubey was the leading wicket taker last season which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Manishi to be Jharkhand’ top bowler

Manishi did not start the last game but we expect him to return in the starting lineup and make an impact as he was the leading wicket taker last season which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
