Meghalaya Cricket Association Cricket Ground, Polo Ground

Meghalaya and Sikkim will lock horns in the second-round clash of the Ranji Trophy Plate Group at the Meghalaya Cricket Association Cricket Ground, Polo Ground, Shillong, starting October 25, 2025 (Tuesday), at 9:30 AM IST. While Meghalaya’s match against Mizoram was abandoned due to rain, Sikkim drew their match against Manipur.

Meghalaya vs Sikkim Chance of Winning

Meghalaya were elevated to the Elite Group last year, but their performance was anything but that. They lost all seven matches - five of them by an innings margin and one game by 10 wickets - to finish at the bottom of the table and now found themselves back again in the Plate group. Balchander Anirudh and Aryan Bora were the only two saving grace, but things didn’t materalise further.

Meanwhile, the all-round effervescene of Ankur Malik is the greatest strength that Sikkim currently possess and that’s going to be an important differentiator. To bolster the base, they also have the likes of Parth Palawat and Ashish Thapa who can turn the gamearound with their batting brilliance. Even though they are not as structured as a Mizoram or Bihar, they can still be making some solid waves.

Meghalaya vs Sikkim Best Batters

Balchander Anirudh to be Meghalaya’s best batter (Parimatch)

Former Tamil Nadu player Balchander Anirudh moved his base to Meghalaya for better opportunities and since then, he has proven himself as one of the best there. He was the highest run-scorer for Meghalaya last year, amassing a total of 342 runs in the Elite group despite a rather doomsday show by his side. In the Plate pool, he will have a bigger dominating run.

Parth Palawat to be Sikkim’s best batter (Parimatch)

Parth Palawat was the highest run-scorer for Sikkim last year, scoring a total of 401 runs at an average of 40.01 with two half-centuries to go with. Palawat was the differentiator for Sikkim alongside Ashish Thappa and Ankur Malik as the trio made sure things were working out in their favour. A lot of hope will ride on Palawat to do an encore.

Meghalaya vs Sikkim Best Bowlers

Akash Choudhary to be Meghalaya’s best bowler (Parimatch)

Akash Choudhary was the highest wicket-taker for Meghalaya last season, having taken 16 wickets for them in the Elite Group. In his first-class career, Choudhary has taken 79 wickets at an average of 30.86 with two five-wicket hauls to boast. With such a good statistics to showcase, there is no reason to doubt his credentials.

Ankur Malik to be Sikkim’s best bowler (Parimatch)

Ankur Malik was the highest wicket-taker for Sikkim in the 2024-25 Ranji Trophy season, having scalped 23 wickets at an average of 31.04. He was a relentless workhorse, who also scored 311 runs with the bat at an average of 38.87. So there is a lot of potential in this market and you should bet on it immediately.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

MEG

Bet on Sikkim to win the match. Purely on a man-to-man basis, Sikkim are the second-strongest side in the North-Eastern belt and have players who can challenge pre-conceived notions. The likes of Parth Palawat and Ashish Thapa are good batters on their days and with Ankur Malik to support him, Sikkim can actually put up a show. For Meghalaya, they don’t have a lot of strength beyond Balchander Anirudh and Aryan Bora.
