Mumbai is perched atop the Elite Group D points table of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2021. They are the only team in the group to have won both their matches for the eight points in their kitty.

Delhi, Maharashtra, Himachal Pradesh, and Rajasthan follow the table-toppers, with four points each to their names. Puducherry is the only team not to have won an encounter in Elite Group D thus far.

Chandigarh and Saurashtra occupy the top two spots in the Elite Group E points table of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2021. They have eight points each in their bag, with the former placed higher due to their slightly better net run rate.

Bengal and Jammu & Kashmir have both won and lost an encounter each in Elite Group E. Haryana and Services have come up short in both the matches they have played and occupy the last two spots in the group.

Assam, Uttarakhand, and Nagaland maintained their hundred percent record in the Plate Group of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2021. The three teams registered their second consecutive victories in the tournament and are only separated by their net run rates in the points table.

Meghalaya is the other team to have a match in the Plate Group. They put it across Sikkim to open their account in the tournament.

Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh have a couple of points apiece, courtesy of the abandoned encounter between the two sides. Sikkim and Manipur bring up the rear of the Plate Group points table, the two teams having suffered reversals in both their matches to date.
