Match 74 of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2023 will see Assam square off against Chandigarh. This is a Group B fixture and Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai will be hosting it.

Assam are having a good time in the competition. They have played four games so far and won three of those. They have 12 points to their name and sit at the second position in the points table. They beat Sikkim by a big margin in their previous game.

On the back of fifties from Denish Das (63) and skipper Riyan Parag (53*), Assam posted 217 on the board. The bowlers then stepped up and knocked over Sikkim for mere 117 to win the game by 100 runs. Assam will be looking to emulate the same performance against Chandigarh on Monday.

Chandigarh, on the other hand, have won two games and lost as many so far. After winning the first two games convincingly, they lost the next two. They suffered a heavy loss against the table-toppers Kerala in their last game.

Kerala batted first and set a target of 134 for Chandigarh. Skipper Manan Vohra led the charge with the bat and scored 95*. He remained unbeaten but lacked support from the other end as they fell short of the target by seven runs. They will be eager to get back to winning ways in their next clash.
