Andhra and Himachal Pradesh are scheduled to cross swords in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023 on Thursday, November 23. The Government Model Senior Secondary School in Sector 26, Chandigarh will host the contest.
Andhra did not have the best of times last year. They finished third after winning four out of seven matches. They have the quality to make amends and turn their fortunes around in the upcoming season of the tournament.
KS Bharat and Hanuma Vihari are stalwarts and need to put their best foot forward. Shaik Rasheed and Ricky Bhui are crucial parts of their batting as well. Prithvi Raj Yarra is most likely to lead their bowling attack in the tournament.
Himachal Pradesh also had a disappointing campaign last year after securing wins in only two out of seven matches in the championship. The team, captained by Nikhil Gangta, have the potential to make a strong comeback.
Rishi Dhawan is expected to be a vital part of their setup. Prashant Chopra and Ankush Bains need to set the tone at the top. Vaibhav Arora showed his ability to rattle batters with sheer pace in the IPL.
