Match Details:

The Elite B Group match of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2021 will be played between Bengal and Hyderabad at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

This match is scheduled to start at 07:00 PM Local Time and IST.

Preview:

Bengal have started their journey in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2021 exactly as they would have wanted to. They outplayed Odisha in the first game and then went on to beat Jharkhand in their next game. The third hurdle that lies in front of them is a team that has looked shaky in this competition – Hyderabad.

While some thought a match against Assam would be an easy victory for Hyderabad, Tanmay Agarwal’s men ended up losing the game. While they won their last game against Odisha, the performance was far from convincing. Hence, Bengal are the obvious favourites to win this game.
