Couch Critic previews the Indian Premier League matches taking place on Saturday 31st October and Sunday 1st November including best bets from @Olimp_SA
It’s the final weekend of regular action and these four matches will decide the fate of many of the teams.
Delhi Capitals vs Mumbai Indians, Saturday 31 October – DSC Dubai
After a bright start Delhi have slumped to three straight defeats and are now nervously in need of at least one more victory from their two remaining matches. Unfortunately, they have to face the only team certain of a playoff spot, Mumbai on Saturday. The Indians are the leaders and the only team with an impressive net run rate. Victory in this one will secure them a top-two finish and spot in the Qualifier match, rather than an Eliminator.
Betolimp Bets:
Top Delhi Batsman – S Iyer @ 4.50
Player to score the most Sixes – Q de Kock @ 7.50
Man of the Match – JJ Bumrah @ 11.00
Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Sunrisers Hyderabad, Saturday 31 October – Sharjah
It’s an easy enough equation for SRH – they simply have to win both their remaining games. RCB will probably get away with winning one of their remaining two, but a “W” against the Sunrisers will help to alleviate a lot of pressure on the perennially underperforming Bangalore side.
Betolimp Bets:
Total Match Sixes under 15.5 @ 1.83
Player to score the most sixes – David Warner @ 5.50
Man of the Match – Rashid Khan @ 10.00
Chennai Super Kings vs Kings XI, Sunday 01 November – Abu Dhabi
Despite some Gayle heroics Punjab gave up their winning streak against the Royals on Friday and now face a must-win clash against a CSK side who have looked better since they have played with the freedom of no longer being in the title race.
Betolimp Bets:
To win the game – Kings XI @ 1.74
Player to score the most sixes – C Gayle @ 5.00
Team to score the most Sixes – Kings XI @ 1.72
Top Kings XI Bowler – R Bishnoi @ 5.50
Top CSK Bowler – R Jadeja @ 6.00
Kolkata Knight Riders vs Rajasthan Royals, Sunday 01 October – DSC Dubai
KKR fluffed their lines badly when they let a strong position slip against the bottom dwelling Chennai. I doubt even a comprehensive victory will be enough for Kolkata to sneak into the top four, but both teams are sure to want to finish on a high.
Betolimp Bets:
To win the game – Royals @ 1.92
Player to score the most sixes – Ben Stokes @ 9.00
Man of the Match – Ben Stokes @ 9.00
