Himachal Pradesh and Rajasthan will face each other at the Reliance Cricket Stadium in Vadodara as part of the ongoing edition of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.

Himachal Pradesh registered a lone win in the two matches they have played so far. Their journey started against Haryana where they lost by eight wickets. They later defeated Jharkhand by seven runs and looked in decent touch.

It will be interesting to watch their performance going into the next encounter. Nikhil Gangta was brilliant in both games on the batting front. From the bowling side, Rishi Dhawan came up with some good returns.

If there is something that's going well for Rajasthan, it will be Deepak Hooda's inclusion in their squad for this season. The infamous batter made a mark with two match-winning knocks for Rajasthan and kept his side on top of the table.

Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Tanveer Ul Haq, Aniket Choudhary, and Ravi Bishnoi highlight the bowling front for Rajasthan and they rarely miss their lines and lengths.
