Maharashtra vs Baroda Betting Tips

Maharashtra to score low before 1st dismissal (@Parimatch)

Maharashtra’s current form looks worrisome as they lack majorly in all the departments. They have lost more games than won so far this season. Their opening order revolves around Siddhesh Veer and Murtaza Trunkwala mainly who failed to deliver with their opening partnerships in the competition. Veer and Murtaza average at 33.00 & 29.00 respectively in the competition currently. They have secured the scores of 0, 3, 26, 5 & 21 runs before their first dismissal in the 1st innings of the five games they have played so far. Moreover, Baroda’s strength lies in their bowling order and will definitely pierce through Maharashtra’s batting order with ease. That said, Maharashtra is very likely to lose an early wicket in the next game.

Maharashtra vs Baroda Toss Prediction

At the Golf Club Ground in Nasik, teams winning the toss have shown a preference for fielding first. The captains perceive an advantage in chasing at this venue, possibly due to favorable pitch conditions for bowlers early on or dew factors influencing later stages of the game. However, toss decisions are also influenced by team strategies, player form, and specific match situations, making precise predictions challenging.

Weather Report

On January 23, 2025, Nashik is expected to have hazy sunshine with a high of 88°F (31°C) and a low of 49°F (9°C). There is no prediction of rain and will favour a good game of cricket at the venue.
