Ankurjyoti Club vs Gauhati Town Club: Who Will Win?
The team journeys of Ankurjyoti Club and Gauhati Town Club differ widely throughout the tournament. Gauhati Town Club has proved victorious in four out of five matches played, courtesy of their mighty batting and disciplined bowling attack. Their first squad, time and again, has stepped up to the challenge, as their opener has smashed two half-centuries in the last three games. Setting the opposite tone, the Ankurjyoti Club has failed to gain momentum and has won two out of five matches at best. If anything, their last match did show the cracks in their armour, as their middle order fell apart against quite another capable team.
Gauhati Town Club enjoys an obvious statistics advantage, with a better average rate of scoring – 8.5 runs per over against Ankurjyoti Club’s 7.2. Their bowlers have also been more economical, leaking just 7.8 runs per over on average against 8.6 runs per over by Ankurjyoti Club bowlers. And their all-rounders have supported them amply in both departments.
Match Prediction: A straightforward victory for the GTC seems likely, with the team playing very well, has a great balanced squad, etc. And then again, depending on whether the captain and the leading run-scorer for Ankurjyoti Club put their hand up on the day, they could have the turnarounds. The opener of GTC is most surely expected to score a big one, while the star bowler will probably pick up crucial wickets in the middle stages.

Pitch Report
Judges Field at Guwahati has been very helpful towards the bats this season, with an average of 160 runs on board in the first innings. The pitch does tend to slow down toward the end of the match, which essentially makes it a little more difficult for the batters during the second innings. Some turn has been available to the spinners in the middle overs, while the pacers have relied on variations to stifle run flow.
Weather-wise, we expect clear skies with no threat of rain. But there could be some dampness due to dew in the latter half, making it difficult for the bowlers to grip the ball, and become another aspect in favor of the team batting second.

Team Preview
Ankurjyoti Club
Ankurjyoti Club’s season has been up and down so far. Still, while the top-order batsmen did look good this year, the middle order has been rather dastardly at converting the starts. The bowling has not been too consistent, and out of them, only the leading-spinner has pulled off so many winning ones. The fielding performance this year has not been up to the average either, which has cost them dearly in crunch moments of the tight contests.
Expected Playing XI:
Akshat Gupta, Bhargavjyoti Kalita, Damien Sereng, Gokul Prasad, Washim Sahil Saikia, Yash Sharma, Sahil Ahmed, Subhankar Das, Tej khan, Uttpal Gawari, Akash Shah, Sachin Hajare, Amanjit Daulagupu, Divyajyoti Sharma, Rahul Tomor, Rohit Shah

Gauhati Town Club
A major protagonist in this season’s cricket, apparently so, is Gauhati Town Club. Be it the openers providing scintillating starts or the middle order finishing the games in an authoritative fashion, the bowling contingent, with its star pacer and a wily spinner, has been impeccable. Their fielding has been great too, with a few stunning catches and run-outs really changing the tide of the games.
Expected Playing XI:
Abhishek Gupta(WK), Saahil Jain,Bishal Sharma, Mahadananda Borah, Jayesh Harlalkar, Sumit Kashyap, Gokul Sharma(C), Altaf Alam, Ranjit Mali, Arnab Borah, Nishchay Sharma
Player to Watch
Gauhati Town Club’s Opener: With two fifties in the last three games, he is in blinding form. An equally strong contender for the Man of the Match award, he brings solidity to the innings while also getting the big shots away with aplomb when needed.
Ankurjyoti Club’s premier spinner: Has been picking up wickets for fun at very crucial junctures. A few more miracles from him, and Ankurjyoti Club will be presented with an outside chance to trouble the favourites.
