Fantasy Cricket Tips for Vijay Hazare Trophy

Quarterfinal 2 of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2021 has defending champions Karnataka taking on Kerala in Delhi on Monday.

Karnataka has been the team to beat in this year's competition with five wins in six games. Riding on the exploits of Devdutt Padikkal and Ravikumar Samarth, both of whom feature among the top three run-scorers, Karnataka is well on course for an encore this year.

With Manish Pandey and Krishnappa Gowtham also expected to return for the clash, the odds are heavily stacked in Karnataka's favor.

However, Kerala has also been impressive this year, with only one loss so far. Their batting unit has delivered the goods more often than not, with Robin Uthappa starring with 375 runs in five games.

With Sreesanth also turning back the clock with thirteen wickets, Kerala should prove to be a handful for the defending champions.

The league fixture between the two sides saw Karnataka beat Kerala by nine wickets. Although Karnataka is expected to come out on top once again, a more competitive game beckons in Delhi on Monday.

Pitch Report

A decent batting track awaits the two sides in Delhi. The bowlers should get movement off the surface, which should keep them interested in the early exchanges.

However, the batsmen should find value for their shots, with wickets in hand being key for either side. Both teams will ideally look to bat first upon winning the toss, with the pitch not expected to change much.

270-280 should be par with the spinners likely to have a say as the match progresses.
