Vijay Hazare Trophy: BAR vs UP Dream11 Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report, Team And Preview

Uttar Pradesh and Baroda face off against one another in Vadodara with both sides desperate for a win to kickstart their Vijay Hazare Trophy campaigns. While Baroda hasn’t been able to capitalize on their opponents failures, they face a stern test against the youth of UP, led by Samarth Singh. With the likes of Rinku Singh and Shivam Mavi in their ranks, UP will consider themselves as the favourites although Baroda has already proved that they aren’t pushovers in any context.

Match Details:

Vijay Hazare Trophy 2019

Baroda vs Uttar Pradesh

Motibaug Cricket Ground, Vadodara

October 7th, 2019

9:00 AM IST

Weather Report:

The weather is all clear for this game although it wasn’t the case in the previous games at this very ground and city. There should be some swing on offer due to the cloudy conditions at the ground on Monday

Pitch Report:

Not many matches have taken place in this pitch so far, and hence it would be rather difficult to give a clear assessment of the same with very little evidence in hand. Nevertheless, pacers should play a major part on Monday with teams preferring to set a score in Vadodara

Predicted Playing XI:

Uttar Pradesh:

Samarth Singh leads this young UP side this season with Shivam Mavi and Ankit Rajpoot already making a mark against this very opposition earlier in the tournament. Umang Sharma and Akshdeep Nath are crucial to their fortunes on Monday while Saurabh Kumar is also one to watch out for against Baroda.

Samarth Singh, Upendra Yadav, Akshdeep Nath, Umang Sharma, Abhishek Goswami, Rinku Singh, Saurabh Kumar, Ankit Chaudhary, Ankit Rajpoot, Mohsin Khan and Shivam Mavi

Baroda:

Baroda shouldn’t be making many changes to the side with Krunal Pandya’s side impressing in both their previous games. While Pandya holds the key in both batting and bowling departments, he should be ably complemented by Deepak Hooda and Rishi Arothe, who is due for a big performance in the tournament. The experience of Yusuf Pathan also bodes well for this side although they enter the game as slight underdogs.

Kedhar Devdhar, Aditya Waghmode, Vishnu Solanki, Deepak Hooda, Krunal Pandya, Swapnil Singh, Yusuf Pathan, Mitesh Patel, Rishi Arothe, Lukman Meriwala and Atit Sheth.

Top Picks:

Krunal Pandya has scored a few runs along with wickets with the ball as well which makes him a worthwhile option for this game. Along with Deepak Hooda and Akshdeep Nath, he is a must-have pick for this game. Lukman Meriwala is in decent form with the ball while Kedhar Devdhar and Samarth Singh should also do the trick as far as the fantasy contest is concerned.

Captaincy Options:

1: Samarth Singh

2: Krunal Pandya

3: Shivam Mavi
