Preview:
Gaya Gladiators will go one-on-one against the Angika Avengers in the 8th match of the Bihar Cricket League 2021 on Tuesday. Gaya Gladiators are still seeking their first win in this competition. They lost both their games against Bhagalpur Bulls and Darbhanga Diamonds. Analyzing their 2 matches, they have batted reasonably well and put up decent runs on the board but have failed to defend the scores. With 2 losses against their name, they are still at the bottom of the table with zero points. They need to bounce back really hard to win their remaining matches.
On the other hand, Angika Avengers are at the completely opposite end of the Gaya Gladiators. Angika Avengers have won both their matches played and are occupying the top spot in the standings with 4 points and having a net run-rate of 1.909. In the tournament opener, they outplayed Patna Pilots by 6 wickets, and in the previous game, they completely dominated the Darbhanga Diamonds by restricting them to the lowest score in this tournament. They sealed the game with ease by a massive margin of 58 runs. It’s a clash between the bottom-placed team and the table-toppers and it will be interesting who will come out on top.

Pitch Condition/Report:
Out of the 6 matches played here, the team’s chasing has won 5 of them. Since it’s an evening game, the ball skids through the surface due to dew factor and makes it easy for the batting in the second half of the game. There is always a challenge for the bowlers to grip the ball in the evening matches. Toss will be crucial for both sides, and whoever wins should bowl first.
