It will be Game No. 13 at Czech Republic T10 Super Series, 2020 where the Vinohrady Biancos would be playing against the Vinohrady Rossos. The Biancos have failed to win any of their two games so far with one abandoned by rain. The Rossos on the other hand registered a good win and lost a game by a small margin on the opening day.
Vinohrady Biancos’ batting looked completely out of sync on the opening day and this is one area where they will need to make improvement going into the game. The Vinohrady Rossos have a well-settled team and shall be looking at this game as an opportunity to make it to the eliminator. It will be interesting to see if the Biancos are able to come out with a better show in the next game.
Vinohrady Biancos Preview
Michael Londesborough’s side would be under extreme pressure going into this game. They shared points with Prague CC Knights in the rain washed game and suffered a crashing defeat at the hands of Prague Spartans Vanguards. It is a must win game for the side to keep its hopes alive.
Their batsmen need to fire as we saw most of them struggling in the game against Vanguards. Vojtech Hasa and Siddharth Sharma need to get the side off to a good start in this game. The skipper would expect runs from himself in the middle and also from Frederick Heydenrich and Ashish Matta. They will be up against a good bowling unit.
In terms of their bowling Nirmal Kumar and Kapil Kumar did well in the last game with the new ball but rest of the attack leaked runs. The side will need good show from Edward Entwistle, Alex Sirisena and Heydenrich as they failed to stop the flow of runs in the last game.
Vinohrady Biancos Predicted Playing XI:
Michael Londesborough (c), Vojtech Hasa, Frederick Heydenrych, Siddharth Sharma, Ashish Matta, Kapil Kumar, Toby Haslam (wk), Edward Entwistle, Alex Sirisena, Nirmal Kumar, Vatsal Kansara
Vinohrady Rossos Preview
It was a mixed day at the office for Ed Knowles’s side as they defeated the Prague CC Knights comprehensively by 10 runs in their opening game only to lose against the Prague Spartans Vanguards in their second game. Holding second place in the points table they would need to win this one to keep their chances of playing in the group eliminator.
They will need their openers Siddarth Goud and Mikulas Stary to fire as they didn’t look in good form on the first day. Knowles is in good form for the side and so is Ritik Tomar. They will need good show form the likes of Chris Pearce and Arshad Yousafzai in this game down the order.
Kyle Gilham bowled well in the last game and along with Tomar will be looking to put up a good show for the side with the new ball. However the side will require tighter spells from the likes of Brigham Smith, Paul Taylor and Shoumyadeep Rakshit who went for runs in the last game.
Vinohrady Rossos Predicted Playing XI:
Ed Knowles (c), Arshad Yousafzai, Kyle Gilham, Mikulas Stary, Siddharth Goud, Chris Pearce (wk), Shoumyadeep Rakshit, Shaun Dalton, Paul Taylor, Brigham Smith, Ritik Tomar

Weather Conditions
It will be a warm day at Velvary on June 21 although there would be cloud cover. The pitch has so far played well and batsmen are able to play their strokes. The bowlers have also got good bargain out of the surface. This is a wicket where team batting first would target a score upward of 80 runs.
Venue Details
The small size of the Velvary Cricket Ground makes it easy for the batsmen to play their strokes with the track helping stroke play. Fast bowlers do get their assistance from the surface with the new ball but this is a tough track to bowl for the spinners with little turn on offer.
Toss: To Bat
The last three games have been won by side that have batted first in the game. The pitch looked good for batting and hence we expect the side winning the toss to bat first on this surface and look at putting up a big score on the board.
The Vinohrady Biancos are under huge pressure going into this game after having grabbed just one point from their rain washed out match on the opening day. They will need to improve their performance in this game. Vinohrady Rossos on the other hand played well and they have a side which is playing well as a unit at the moment and this will give them advantage going into this game.
