Round five of Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023 will see Goa take on Nagaland at Dadoji Konddev Stadium in Thane. Both sides are placed in Group E and this fixture will take place on Friday.
Goa haven’t had the best of starts to the competition. They have played three games so far and lost all. They suffered a loss against Punjab in their last game and are desperate for a win.
Lakshay Garg picked up four wickets for Goa as it helped them knock over Punjab on 289. Krishnamurthy Siddharth played a fighting knock of 70 but a lack of contributions from the other batters resulted in them getting bundled out on 222 to lose the game by 67 runs.
