Vijay Hazare Trophy 2021-22, Jharkhand vs Haryana: Probable XIs, match prediction, weather forecast, and pitch report
Jharkhand and Haryana will lock horns in the Elite Group C match of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2021-22 at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur on Sunday.
Jharkhand have won one game and lost the other so far in the two contests they have played. They are in third position on the points table in the Elite Group C.
Under Virat Singh’s leadership, Jharkhand have done a decent job so far. Varun Aaron and Anukul Roy are the key players to watch out for in the Jharkhand side.
Meanwhile, Haryana have lost both the matches they have played thus far and are at the bottom of the points table. They are the current wooden spoon holders and require some big wins in order to stage a grand comeback in the tournament.
Although Haryana have some IPL stars in their side, they have so far failed to put up a good collective performance.
