Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023, Bihar vs Haryana: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast
The upcoming Round 2 fixture of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023 will see Bihar take on Haryana. Both sides are placed in Group C and this clash will be held at the Gujarat College Ground in Ahmedabad on Saturday.
Bihar faced Delhi in their opening game of the competition. It wasn’t the best of starts for them as they were completely outplayed by Delhi.
Bihar batted first and the decision backfired as none of their batters got going. They kept losing wickets at regular intervals and got bundled out on 149 in 39 overs, with Veer Pratap Singh top-scoring with 43. Delhi then chased down the modest total in just 22.1 overs with eight wickets in hand.
The opposite was the case with Haryana as they started Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023 with a win. They beat Uttarakhand convincingly in their opening game to open their account in the competition.
Bowling first, Yuzvendra Chahal spun a web against Uttarakhand as he registered figures of 6/26 in his 10 overs to knock over the opposition on 207. The top-order batters then stepped up and contributed to help Haryana chase down the total with five overs to spare.
