Vidarbha are clear favourites here, and we expect them to win comfortably if they play to their level.

Vidarbha come in with the better form, having won four of their last four games, while Uttar Pradesh have won two of their last four. They know these conditions, with three wins from three games at this venue, while Uttar Pradesh have not played a decided game here. Their results this season back this up: Vidarbha are 1st in the table, Uttar Pradesh 2nd.

Batting first has paid off at this ground, so the toss winner will likely want runs on the board.

All eyes will be on the pitch at Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium once the covers come off.

The first-innings average over the last 3 Test games at this ground is 239, and 401 in the second innings.

The last 3 first-innings scores here, newest first: 209 (MP, lost), 195 (GOA, lost), 313 (PUD, lost).

Spin has done the damage here: slow bowlers have taken 58% of the wickets (42 of 72). Seamers have gone at 2.81 an over and spinners at 2.78.

3 recent first-class games here produced 3 results and 0 draws, with the side batting first winning 0 of them. No side has chased successfully in the fourth innings in those games, a sign the pitch wears and gets harder to bat on.

Whoever wins the toss should bat, and let the pitch wear for their spinners later in the game.
