Sunrisers Hyderabad v Royal Challengers Bangalore – Team News

• Jonny Bairstow – The England batsman struck a superb half-century in the opener. The Hyderabad hierarchy could shift him back up the order after that.
• Rashid Khan – The Afghanistan bowler took two wickets in the first game and bowled with his usual economy as well. He will be vital to SRH’s chances here.
• David Warner – The Aussie star fell early against Kolkata and will want to get more runs on the board in this contest. A partnership with Bairstow could be crucial.
• Washington Sundar – RCB opened the batting with Sundar in their win over Mumbai. He could be dropped down the order for this but has a big role to play with the ball.
• Devdutt Paddikal – The talented batsman missed the first match after a positive Covid-19 test but is back in contention to start this game.

Sunrisers Hyderabad v Royal Challengers Bangalore – Betting Tips and Prediction

We’ve got some great IPL betting tips for you ahead of this latest clash. They include all the latest odds as we help to identify the best bets on offer.

Sundar to Get over 20.5 Performance Points

While it is unlikely Washington will open the batting for RCB give the return of Devdutt Padikkal, he will certainly do more bowling in this one.

Conditions in Chennai should suit yet the Hyderabad batsman – particularly Jonny Bairstow – will be keen to take him on.

This could see him go for a few runs but also bag a couple of wickets.

He is priced at 2.25 to get over 20.5 player performance points with bet365.

He gets 20 points for every wicket, one for every run and 10 for a catch in the field.

His ability to come in to provide some big-hitting later in the innings is also a big plus for this bet.

Back Padikkal for Top RCB Batsman

Devdutt Padikkal enjoyed a breakthrough IPL last year and has been in eye-catching form domestically.

He is likely to return to the top of the order next to skipper Virat Kolhi and looks a value bet to be RCB’s top batsman.

The team has some brilliant middle-order hitting with the likes of Glenn Maxwell and AB de Villiers but Padikkal can give them a solid foundation.

His price of 4.0 with 1xBet is too tempting to ignore.

Natarajan for Top Sunrisers Bowlers

T Natarajan has been in excellent form heading into this IPL and again looked dangerous in the first clash.

He could be worth backing in the top SRH bowler market at 4.32 with 1xBet.

Should Rashid Khan and countryman Mohammad Nabi build more pressure then Natarajan could be the man to take advantage in the wickets column.

His ability to bowl sublime yorkers and take the pitch out of play could work wonders at Chennai.
