TEAMS PREVIEW
Haryana Preview
Haryana have put together a solid and competitive campaign so far in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025/26, showing resilience after an early setback and responding strongly with back-to-back wins. From three matches, Haryana have registered two victories and one defeat, placing themselves firmly in contention in Elite Group D with 8 points and a positive net run rate of 0.373. Their recent performances underline a balanced side that combines batting depth with disciplined bowling.
After a disappointing loss against Railways in the opening game, Haryana bounced back impressively with a commanding six-wicket win over Saurashtra, followed by an even more authoritative 26-run victory against Gujarat. The win against Gujarat was particularly significant, as Haryana posted a competitive 299 all out in 49.4 overs and then defended it confidently. Batting first, Mayank Shandilya anchored the innings with a superb 86 off 105 balls, earning the Player of the Match award, while Himanshu Rana added vital support with a fluent 57 off 56 deliveries. The bowling unit then applied sustained pressure, with Anshul Kamboj leading the attack by picking up 3 wickets, and Parth Vats chipping in with crucial breakthroughs to restrict Gujarat to 273 all out.
Himanshu Rana has been the backbone of the batting lineup, scoring 400 runs in 10 matches at an average of 40, while Parth Vats has impressed with 359 runs from 9 matches, averaging nearly 45. With the ball, Anshul Kamboj has been outstanding, claiming 18 wickets in 10 matches at an economy under 4.7, supported well by Nishant Sindhu, who has taken 13 wickets in 8 matches. With momentum on their side and key players peaking at the right time, Haryana enter the next fixture confident of extending their winning run and strengthening their position in the group standings.

Services Preview
Services have endured a difficult start to their Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025/26 campaign, finding themselves winless after three matches in Elite Group D. With three consecutive defeats, Services are currently placed at the bottom of the points table, and the margin of losses has highlighted areas that urgently need correction - particularly in bowling execution and middle-order consistency.
Their most recent outing against Railways was a tough one to digest. Batting first after opting to field, Services conceded a massive 365/7 in 50 overs. The Railways top order dominated proceedings, leaving the Services bowlers chasing the game early. Raj Choudhary was the standout performer with the ball, picking up 3 wickets for 27 runs, while Pulkit Narang and Poonam Poonia chipped in with two wickets each. In reply, Services showed some fight with the bat but ultimately fell short, getting bowled out for 281 in 47.2 overs. Sagar Dahiya was the bright spark, scoring a valiant 95 off 125 balls, anchoring the innings under pressure. Ravi Chauhan also contributed a brisk 73 off 58 deliveries, providing some late momentum, but the asking rate proved too steep for the lower order to handle.
Across the season so far, Mohit Ahlawat has been Services’ most reliable batter, scoring 336 runs in 10 matches at an average of 33.6. Rajat Paliwal has added stability in the middle order with 217 runs, while all-rounder Poonam Poonia has led the bowling unit with 12 wickets in 8 matches at an economy of 5.15. Amit Shukla has also impressed in limited opportunities, maintaining a tight economy rate below 4. As Services look ahead, converting promising individual performances into cohesive team efforts will be key if they are to turn their campaign around.
