Karnataka vs Chandigarh Chances of Winning
Karnataka were neck-and-neck with Maharashtra in the previous game where the former scored 313 runs in the first innings. Skipper and opener Mayank Agarwal top-scored with 80 runs while Shreyas Gopal and Ravichandran Smaran notched up half-centuries of their own, having scored 71 and 54 runs, respectively. Maharashtra made it too close for comfort as they responded with 300 runs on the board. In the second innings with the bat, Karnataka secured an additional 310 runs - Mayank Agarwal led from the front once again as he scored 103 runs, followed by Abhinav Manohar’s 96. However, at this juncture, the sides had to settle for a draw due to a lack of time.
Chandigarh, on the other hand, lost yet another match as they took on Punjab in the previous outing. The former, having batted first, posted a mere 173 runs on the board where wicket-keeper batter Nikhil Thakur’s 63 and Gaurav Puri’s 40 were the only standout performances. The bowlers did the best they could and restricted the opposition to 142 which gave the batters a chance at redemption. However, they fumbled it as they scored a measly 195 runs before getting bowled out. They were unable to curtail their rivals this time around, conceding defeat by eight runs in the end.

Karnataka vs Chandigarh Prediction & Tips 2025
Chandigarh to score low before first dismissal
Shivam Bhambri and Arjun Azad have opened every match for Chandigarh this season but their partnership has been rather erratic so far. In the four matches they have played, they added 8, 1, 62, 68, 4, 6 and 0 runs to the first wicket. Although they had two explosive innings together, they are not in a position to challenge Karnataka’s bowling attack in the next game.
