Kolkata Knight Riders v Royal Challengers Bangalore – Team News

  • Eoin Morgan – The England and KKR captain is short of form this IPL. He is under a little pressure to help fire his side back to winning ways.
  • Pat Cummins – The Aussie quick has been a highlight for the Knight Riders so far. He has smashed big runs with the bat and heads into this on the back of three wickets against Delhi.
  • Devdutt Padikkal – The Bangalore opener is capable of big scores from the top of the order but has found it difficult to add consistency to his game.
  • Washington Sundar – The spinner missed out in the last game but could come back into the RCB team for this contest. He looks well suited to conditions in Ahmedabad if given the opportunity.
  • Glenn Maxwell – The all-rounder has been in eye-catching form early in this IPL but will want to put the duck against Punjab quickly behind him.

Kolkata Knight Riders v Royal Challengers Bangalore – Betting Tips and Prediction

This looks a tough ask for KKR against a RCB side that will want to bounce back to winning ways sooner rather than later.

Give, Bangalore’s short price in the outright winner market, looking at other markets is the way to find better value selections.

Washington to Get Over 20.5 Performance Points

Washington Sundar missed the last game but could come back into the team after the defeat to Punjab Kings.

He looks perfect for conditions in Ahmedabad and 20.5 player performance points seems within reach.

His pace off bowling can take wickets here but also has the ability to smash a few runs and take catches in the deep.

Remember, he gets 20 points for every wicket, one for each run and 10 for a catch.

Washington can be backed at 1.83 with 22Bet to get over the 20.5 points tally.

Value in Maxwell for Top RCB Batsman

Glenn Maxwell made a thunderous start to IPL 2021 with some big scores in Chennai.

He hasn’t quite maintained that recently but it does mean he offers some value in the top RCB batsman market.

Should Kohli or Padikkal fall early then it could be down to Maxwell to make the runs they need.

His price of 4.5 with bet365 looks decent value when you consider recent inconsistencies of those above him in the order.

Karthik is Interesting Longshot

Backing Dinesh Karthik to be Kolkata’s top batsman is a longshot bet worth considering.

KKR keep losing early wickets and that could be the case once more against this RCB side.

Karthik is finding himself in much earlier than his team would like but is also looking in decent form.

There is a chance he could be moved up the order slightly given recent weaknesses.

His price of 10.0 with bet365 to be KKR top batsman is a good price.
