Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2019-20: Preview – November 22

Another four matches, two each from Super League Group A and Group B are scheduled for November 22 at different venues in Surat.

Super League Group A: Rajasthan vs Haryana

Rajasthan did not have the best of starts in the Super League as they lost their first match against a strong Baroda team by just 15 runs. Haryana on the other end will play their first match in the Super League after a strong showing in Group D. They finished on the same points with Mumbai after winning 6 out of their 7 matches and their only loss came against the group leader Mumbai.

Key players: Deepak Chahar (Rajasthan); Harshal Patel (Haryana)

Predicted Winner: Haryana

Super League Group B: Mumbai vs Tamil Nadu

This will be the key match of the day as two domestic top teams will meet each other in the shorter format. Mumbai topped their group with 6 wins and their batsmen Aditya Tare and Jay Bista are in pretty good form. Their batting gained more strength post the somewhat controversial return of Prithvi Shaw who scored a majestic 63 in his comeback match. Tamil Nadu faced a demoralizing 9 wicket loss against Karnataka in their first match in the Super League but will look to deliver a strong performance in their second fixture.

Key players: Prithvi Shaw (Mumbai); Dinesh Karthik (Tamil Nadu)

Predicted Winner: Mumbai

Super League Group A: Baroda vs Delhi

Both Baroda and Delhi will come to this match after winning their respective first matches in the Super League. Both with their good form from the early stage will look to make a significant movement towards the top of Group A with another win. These two teams can easily boast of strong squads and will hope to deliver good performance in this crucial game.

Key players: Aditya Waghmode (Baroda); Dhruv Shorey (Delhi)

Predicted Winner: Baroda

Super League Group B: Karnataka vs Jharkhand

Karnataka are arguably the strongest limited-overs team in the Indian domestic circuit currently. Although they could not top their group because of their rare loss to Baroda they showed their class with a dominant performance in their Super League opening match by sealing it by 9 wickets. Jharkhand, on the other hand, had a mediocre display in their first match of the Super League and need to pull them up a long way to challenge Karnataka.

Key players: Lokesh Rahul (Karnataka); Virat Singh (Jharkhand)

Predicted Winner: Karnataka
