Match Analysis

The pitch at the Ekana Cricket Stadium should provide a fair challenge between bat and ball, although the spin and pace bowlers will get more out of the wicket towards the end of the evening.

Teams batting first will be looking to hit 180 or more, with sides looking to bat first as chasing a big score is a challenge on a wicket that can be slow-paced as the match goes on. The Super Giants’ top-order struggles make it vital that they bat first and post a decent score as their attack led by Mohammed Shami and Prince Yadav looks most likely to be their match-winning ticket.

The long straight boundaries (81m) make hitting straight sixes a challenge, with the square boundaries measuring 76m and 69m. Teams looking to hit out in a bid to post 200-plus might find themselves in trouble, so a more conservative approach is key to setting a big platform, as both sides have strong power-hitters who can try to cash in during the closing overs if their innings is well set.

Betting Markets to Watch

Batter Match Runs

Jos Buttler’s good run of form makes him worth backing to score over 26.5 runs.

Score Over/Under Runs

Take Over/Under Wickets

Rashid Khan has figures of 1/24, 2/19, 1/29, 1/39 and 3/17 in his last 5 matches and is worth backing to pick up two wickets or more. Prince Yadav has taken 10 wickets in his last 5 bowling innings and is worth backing to take his third 2-for in 3 IPL matches.
