Railways square off against Assam in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy Elite Group D match at the Air Force Complex Ground in Palam, New Delhi on November 9, 2021.

Railways are coming off an eight-wicket loss against Gujarat. Batting first, they could only muster 132/9 from their 20 overs. Their top-order failed to score and the middle order couldn't do a lot either.

Gujarat chased down the total comfortably in just 12 overs. They gave the Railways bowlers no chance whatsoever, making it a one-sided affair in the end.

Assam also lost their last match, against Kerala. Like Railways, Assam were also restricted to a low score as they batted first.

Assam could only manage to put up 121/8. Kerala got over the line in 18 overs with eight wickets left as the Assam bowlers could not do much with limited runs to play with.

Both teams will look to put their losses behind them and register a win in this match.
