Mumbai and Sikkim are scheduled to cross swords in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023 on Thursday, November 23. The KSCA Cricket (2) Ground in Alur will host the contest.
Mumbai will be captained by Ajinkya Rahane, who is expected to play a key for them in the tournament. Jay Gokul Bista and Royston Dias will open the batting for Mumbai and have to set the tone for their team.
Shams Mulani is a quality all-rounder and a lot will depend on him as well. Tushar Deshpande will lead the bowling attack. Tanush Kotian has emerged as a useful spin-bowling option and he needs to come to the party for Mumbai.
Mumbai finished second in the points table last time around and crashed out of the tournament after losing to Uttar Pradesh in the pre-quarter-finals.
Sikkim, on the other hand, had a disastrous campaign last time around after they lost all seven of their matches. It remains to be seen how they perform this time around in the tournament.
