This should be a tight game, but we think Bengal have just enough to get over the line.
The head-to-head record backs them too: Bengal lead it 9-2. It is not one-way traffic, though: Jharkhand have the better recent form (four wins from their last five games, to two from five for Bengal), so Jharkhand cannot be written off.
Sides batting second have done better at this ground, so expect the toss winner to bowl. A first-innings total of about 150 looks par for this game.
