Jammu and Kashmir vs Kerala Chance of Winning

Jammu and Kashmir have made such impactful progress in the ongoing Ranji Trophy that everything seems to be within their reach at the moment. If beating Mumbai in Mumbai wasn’t enough, you could count on the fact that they have secured five wins and two draws in seven matches to take home the honours.

On the other hand, Kerala secured three wins and four losses in their seven matches so far. While one could argue that a couple of their wins was steered by luck, but then what is cricket without luck? Things are going to be even more interesting for the Sachin Baby-led side, who enter the next clash on the back of an innings win.

One of the most consistent batters to have ever come out of Jammu and Kashmir, Khajuria has scored 4095 runs in first-class cricket at an average of 33.29. This year, he has been in a different league altogether, having scored 663 runs at an average of 55.25 and is Jammu and Kasmir’s highest run-scorer in the format.

He has been on a deliverance of batting soliloquy this season, scoring 399 runs already at an average of 66.50, with a century and two fifties along the way.

Jalaj Saxena is consistency personified. When he holds the ball to do the talking, it does oh-so-beautifully. With 33 wickets in the ongoing season already, Saxena, a legend in the format, has already delivered the goods for Kerala.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Jammu and Kashmir

Even though Kerala have the likes of Sachin Baby, Salman Nizar, Mohammed Azharuddeen, Jalaj Saxena, and Rohan Kunnummal in their line-up, on the basis of current form, it is difficult to bet against Jammu and Kashmir. The Mumbai encounter was a classic example of how a strong cohesive unit can achieve the unthinkable. Sure enough, the Paras Dogra-led unit will have to do more than just bare minimum, but they surely would like to believe that they have it in them to spur a massive change and make it to the semi-finals of the Ranji Trophy for the first time.

• Jammu and Kashmir to Win - 2.10 (Batery)
