It feels good when a prediction turns out to be right. Ask Dilip Vengsarkar. The former Mumbai and India captain was invited as chief guest for the Vidarbha Cricket Association awards a few months ago. He told the audience in a packed Nagpur auditorium which included members of the state's cricketing fraternity that they were in for some good days. "I said to them that with Chandrakant Pandit around as coach, there is an opportunity for Vidarbha to win the Ranji Trophy," Vengsarkar told mid-day yesterday.
