Match Preview

As many would have predicted before the start of this competition, Saurashtra have started their campaign on a brilliant note. They defeated Services in the first game and went on to thrash Vidarbha by 79 runs in their second game. Their challenge lies in the form of Goa.

Goa are not particularly a team one would expect to dominate the group, but they have had their moments of glory. While Madhya Pradesh was a bit too hot to handle for them, the Goans got the better of services in their last match. That being said, Saurashtra is a different kettle of fish and handling them will require more than their one hundred percent.
