It has been a bowling-dominated season so far. Both teams have in-form bowlers and a struggling batting lineup. River Rine Club suffered their first loss after being bowled out for 109 runs batting first against the New Star Club.
But in their next game, they were successful in defending the same total and won by 16 runs against the Guwahati Town Club. Bud Cricket Club has also seen its bowlers deliver match-winning spells. But in their recent outing, they suffered an 8-wicket loss while defending 105 runs.
It is clear from the results of the recent matches that bowlers are key to victory and neither team can post a competitive 1st innings total. They are both dependent on their bowlers to deliver a win.
There haven’t been any highlight batting performances from either side except for RRC’s opener Wasiqur Rahman scoring 77 off 65 balls in their last match leading the team to a 133-run score in the 1st innings.

Bud Cricket Club will be up against the table toppers in this match. Though the opposition is at the top of the points table, it is not threatening. The River Rine Club isn’t stronger or better than BCC in any shape or form.
Both teams are equally strong as far as the bowling goes. However, Bud Cricket Club’s batting performances in recent outings have been pretty bad. That is something they should work on.
Before losing their last match while defending 105 runs, BCC lost 5 wickets on their way to an 89-run target against New Star Club. Only 3 batters had a score in double digits and neither of them had a strike rate of 100 or more in that run chase.
Bud Cricket Club has made constant changes to the batting lineup and that may have had an adverse effect. Manikarna Sharma, Bikas Das, and Abhilash Maurya are the key batters in this team.
Their batting positions have been changed a lot recently. Maurya was sent down the order after having opened in previous matches. They’ve tried 4 different openers apart from Maurya and none of them has delivered for the BCC.
Skipper Pushparaj Sharma is the key bowler in this squad. Shafiqul Islam and Tushar Saha are other in-form bowlers to watch out for.

River Rine Club will be up against an inconsistent team. This is a great opportunity for their batters to find rhythm and even if it’s a bowling-dominated game, try to build a few steady partnerships.
The key to gaining the upper hand in this match will be to not lose wickets. It is a low-scoring venue where RRC successfully defended 109 runs. A 140-run total can be a match-winning score. As such, the batter need not try to hit big and find the boundary more often.
Ones and twos, and a slow and steady partnership in the middle can win the game for River Rine Club. Wasiqur Rahman and Yogesh Tiwari are the key opening batters for the side. Rahman’s recent performance has given them hope.
He is an attacking player who scored 23 off 9 balls in the previous match when they were bowled out for 109 runs. Wicket-keeper batter Yogesh Tiwari needs to stay around a bit longer to ensure the momentum built by Rahman is carried forward.
There haven’t been any promising batting performances in this lineup. Akash Chetry and Afhan Ahmed were two of the lower-order batters who made some significant contributions with the bat.
The middle order has disappointed time and again. Amit Sinha, Bikash Chetry, and Aman Chetry are the key wicket-takers in this bowling attack. These bowlers have led the side to back-to-back wins in the last two matches.
Abhilash Gogoi, who came in as the impact player in the last match was also quite handy with the ball, picking up 3 for 7 as RRC bowled out the opposition for 67 runs while defending 133.

The weather will be partly cloudy in Guwahati with a high of 33 degrees Celsius on the match day. There are no predictions for rain and this should be a complete 20-over-per-side match without any interruptions.
It is a bowling-friendly pitch that offers a lot of help for the spinners. The spinners are crucial in the bowling attack and can deliver match-winning spells. The average 1st innings score in the last 10 matches at the Nehru Stadium in Guwahati is 109 runs. Anything around 140 or more will be a match-winning total in this contest.
6 of the last 10 matches in the Assam T20 Pride Cup were won by teams bowling first. Going by the stats there seems to be a clear advantage to either batting or bowling first but considering the batting form, we reckon bowling first should be the ideal choice for both captains.
It is a tricky prediction between two teams that have no in-form batters in the squad. It is all up to the bowler to deliver the results. There are no reliable batters in either team and that makes picking a winner quite tricky. Considering the current form and the momentum of River Rine Club, they will have the upper hand going into this match and start as favorites in our match prediction.
