Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023, Bengal vs Nagaland: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming Details

Bengal and Nagaland will face each other in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2023 on Thursday, November 23. The Sharad Pawar Cricket Academy BKC in Mumbai will host the contest.

Bengal, captained by Sudip Kumar Gharami, did not have the best of times last time around in the tournament. They failed to go through to the semi-final after finishing third in Elite Group E.

Abhimanyu Easwaran and Anustup Majumdar need to do a chunk of the work in the batting department. Shahbaz Ahmed is a quality all-rounder, while the keeper Abhishek Porel is expected to shine in this game as well.

Ishan Porel and Akash Deep will lead the pace attack. Both cricketers have rubbed shoulders with some of the best in the business while playing in the IPL. The likes of Writtick Chatterjee and Pradipta Pramanik need to play their roles as well.

Nagaland have some talented cricketers in their ranks, but the chances of them qualifying for the quarters are remote. Last time around, they lost all their six matches and finished at the bottom of the table.
