Saurashtra
Saurashtra is currently unbeaten in a group that was started as a group of death before the start of the Vijay Hazare Trophy. They have already qualified for the next round but are now up against the Delhi side who are desperate to win this game to keep their hopes alive. Saurashtra has been one of the most consistent sides of Domestic Cricket in the last 5 years, currently, they are Champions of Ranji Trophy and are looking strong to add Vijay Hazare Trophy in their cabinet.
One of the biggest things about this team is that they don’t have any big name or even a current Indian international player but it is the collective effort that makes this team tough to beat. Chirag Jani has been the star for them in middle overs and picked 9 wickets at an economy of 4.

Delhi
Delhi was looking down and out of Vijay Hazare Trophy at one stage but last match’s incredible win against Haryana has given them a new ray of hope and if they tear down the giants Saurashtra in their last game then their chances are bright to make it to the next stage. Delhi side has been really inconsistent in this tournament and their batting has been the biggest let down.
Expectations were high from their premier batsman Shikhar Dhawan but he has not been in the best of form and his struggles has hurt the Delhi team so far. They have tried many combinations at top batting order with the likes of Dhruv Shorey, Nitish Rana but all of them have failed miserably which leaves this side very fragile in the batting department. One positive thing for Delhi is that their captain Pradeep Sangwan has been in some serious form and is coming off a 5 wicket haul against Haryana.

DEL vs SAU – Who will win the match, Today Match Prediction:
Saurashtra is expected to win the match against Delhi
KhelTalk experts feel Saurashtra will win against Delhi in this match. Saurashtra are currently unbeaten in the Vijay Hazare Trophy and their performances have improved game by game. Their bowling lineup is their biggest strength and have adapted to Chandigarh’s conditions with ease. Their spinners have been hunting in middle overs and Delhi’s fragile team could struggle big time against them. Delhi’s batting order has been vulnerable so far in all matches and if Shikhar Dhawan doesn’t step up then they will have a hard time negotiating with the Saurashtra team. We think Saurashtra will win this match.
Popular Betting Odds For DEL vs SAU, Vijay Hazare Trophy, Today Match Prediction, Cricket Betting Tips
Top Batsman from Saurashtra – Sheldon Jackson
Sheldon Jackson is a domestic cricket legend and it is such a shame that his grind has gone unnoticed over the years but it hasn’t stopped him from piling runs in all tournaments. Although, he hasn’t got many opportunities yet in this tournament because of openers scoring the most runs but surely, he will have a big role to play in this match against a strong Delhi side.
Jackson is a free-flowing customer and likes to take the game on from ball one. He has scored 94 runs so far in the tournament but has the potential to go big in this game.
Top Batsman from Delhi – Shikhar Dhawan
Five months back Shikhar Dhawan was leading the Indian team against Srilanka but now there are uncertainties over his spot in the Indian team which shows how cruel this sport is. Dhawan is going through a rough patch lately and his poor form in 2nd half of IPL has carried forward.
He has only scored 44 runs in 4 innings so far but it only needs one shot to regain his touchback. Dhawan is a certified performer of 50 over the game and undoubtedly the most underrated great of this format.
Top Bowler from Saurashtra – Dharmendra Jadeja
The player with surname Jadeja shining with the ball is not a new thing in Indian cricket but it is the other Jadeja from Saurashtra we are talking about. Dharmendra Jadeja has been the ultimate consistent performer for the Saurashtra side over the years and was the main reason behind their many Ranji Trophy finals and 2020 triumph. He is a slow left-arm bowler and has picked 8 wickets this season at an astonishing economy of less than 3
Top Bowler from Delhi – Pradeep Sangwan
Pradeep Sangwan has been instrumental for Delhi in this season and the main reason behind Delhi’s survival in this group of death. He has picked 10 wickets from 4 matches and is coming off 5 wicket haul against Haryana in the last match.
Sangwan is the captain of the side and has set a high benchmark for the team. He makes one change in the bowling attack and always looks to be hunting for wickets. Sangwan has been playing domestic cricket since 2007 and has wealth of experience of performing in crunch situations.
