Pre-Match Analysis:
Haryana has been commanding over the last 3 weeks as the margin of victories will sum up their journey in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023. They topped the Group C standings with 7 wins in a row and extended to 8 matches with 4 wickets win over Bengal in the 1st Quarter-Final. India International Yuzvendra Chahal who is back in the domestic reckoning showed the way for Haryana with a match-defining 4-wicket haul. It was opener Ankit Kumar’s brave century in the latter half put them in the Semi-Finals. Rahul Tewatia’s performances have been staggering throughout the competition, picking up 11 wickets and scoring 325 runs without getting dismissed.
One of the consistent teams in Indian domestic cricket, Tamil Nadu made a cut into the Semi-Finals for yet another time thrashing 4-time champions Mumbai in the 4th Quarter-Final by 7 wickets. Their spinners Manimaran Siddharth, Varun Chakravarthy, Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore, and Baba Aparajith exploited the conditions and wreaked havoc to pick all 10 wickets of Mumbai for 227 runs. Seasoned campaigner Baba Indrajith’s well-measured unbeaten century steered them home with 40 balls to spare. They aren’t dependent on a single individual to win matches rather they hunt in a pack and their overall performances in the competition are a perfect example.
