It is close to a coin flip, but our pick is Saurashtra, who come out marginally ahead at 53%.
The head-to-head record backs them too: Saurashtra lead it 3-0. It is not one-way traffic, though: Punjab have the better recent form (three wins from their last five games, to one from five for Saurashtra), so Punjab 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 160 looks par for this game.
