Karnataka and Sikkim will take on each other in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2022 Group B encounter at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on November 21. Both teams have had contrasting runs in the season with Sikkim yet to bag a point while Karnataka have been consistently winning games.  

However, the Mayank Agarwal-led-side suffered a surprising defeat against Assam in the previous game and they will be looking to turn the table around. Nikin Jose’s century was not enough as the bowlers failed to get enough breakthroughs. Karnataka are now at the second position in the points table with four wins in five games.  

On the other hand, Sikkim has had a disappointing campaign and are yet to put up a notable performance in the season. It is going to be tough work for them against the mighty Karnataka side.
