rcb vs dc online cricket bettingRoyal Challengers Bangalore vs Delhi Capitals match prediction 8 Oct 2021
Royal Challengers Bangalore will draw curtains on a successful group stage campaign with a clash against the table-toppers Delhi Capitals at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Friday, the 8th of October. Even though the fixture is essentially a dead-rubber considering both teams have already booked their playoff berths, both teams will be rearing to set foot into the knockouts on a positive note. Here, I have collated the three best Indian Premier League betting tips for you from the RCB vs DC match prediction.
The much awaited business end of the IPL is almost here in what has technically been it’s longest season due to the elongated COVID-19 induced break at the midway point. Nevertheless, despite a change in venues, the quality of cricket has only been on an upward slope as has been the excitement of fans regarding the T20 spectacle. Heaps of tension and drama still subsides, with four teams still in contention for the final playoff spot. However, Delhi Capitals have nothing to worry about, for their spot in the qualifier is locked in. Similarly, Royal Challengers Bangalore are pretty much resigned to finishing in the third spot in the league, even though a commanding victory may give them an outside chance to replace CSK in second should the Men in Yellow succumb to Punjab. Regardless, a blockbuster awaits on the horizon and on that note, here are my top three betting tips from the KKR vs DC match prediction.
Delhi Capitals has adopted a somewhat non-conventional route to success by basing their success on the ability to keep the runs flowing rather than clearing the rope frequently, giving RCB an edge in the department. Consequently, after going through the available options, I have found just the perfect RCB vs DC team bet for you.
Royal Challengers Bangalore to hit more sixes
Delhi Capitals have struggled to hit maximums this rcb vs dc online cricket bettingRoyal Challengers Bangalore vs Delhi Capitals match prediction 8 Oct 2021 season, or rather have not needed to. They have cleared the fence just 48 times in 13 matches, a surprisingly low average of 3.69. In comparison, Bangalore have hit an astonishing 26 sixes extra, averaging exactly two more maximums per game at 5.69. In fact, the trio of Maxwell, Padikkal and de Villiers alone have a combined 50 big hits between them.However, the Blue Army has astonishingly conceded more sixes than their counterparts as well. While their bowlers have seen the ball sail past the rope 79 times, RCB’s unit has restricted the batsmen to three less sixes at 76. All in all, the net difference between the two teams per match comes to a sizable 2.22 sixes. When the two sides had clashed earlier in the season, Royal Challengers Bangalore cleared the ropes 9 times while Delhi only managed to record four maximums. On the whole, the Bangalorean outfit is inevitably bound to hit the most sixes in the match and you can thus comfortably take up this RCB vs DC team bet at Dafabet, considering their outrageous odds of 1.99.
The sheer star-power in the batting lineup of these two teams ensures there are always a bunch of players performing at world class levels. I have therefore picked two of them for my player bets in today’s RCB vs DC match prediction.
Glenn Maxwell to score over 21.5
The Aussie superstar has been in mind numbing form of late. In the last four games, Glenn Maxwell has registered three half-centuries, amassing 203 runs at an astonishing average of 67.67. This has taken his tally in the tournament to a mammoth 447 runs, the sixth highest in the entire league, averaging 40.63. In the encounter against Delhi earlier in the year, he had managed a relatively quiet 25(20), still comfortably above our required mark. In fact, Maxwell has managed to breach the threshold 9 times out of 13 in IPL 2021. THe 32-year-old’s international T20I career average of 31.78 speaks for itself, as do his nearly 2,000 runs in the Indian Premier League. There was little doubt about his capability anyway, the concern was always his form and boy is he on a red-hot streak. Thus, Glenn Maxwell should breeze his way past the score of 23.5 runs in the upcoming RCB vs DC game. You can bet on the player at Dafabet by taking up their mouth watering odds of 1.87.
Rishabh Pant to score over 22.5
Despite an underwhelming outing in the Tests on the tour of England, Rishabh Pant’s form against the white ball has been brilliant. Across five T20Is against the English earlier in the year, the wicketkeeper had aggregated 103 runs at an average of 25.75. The performances went on to become even more impressive in the IPL, where he has amassed 352 runs in 13 innings at an amazing average of 35.20. Since the resumption of the season in Dubai, Pant has crossed the required mark in four of his five innings, piling on 139 runs at an average of 34.75. Against RCB earlier in the season, he had stroked his way to a flamboyant unbeaten 58 off 48 deliveries, lacing his innings with six fours. The highest run-scorer for the Delhi franchise ahead of the likes of Sehwag, Gambhir and Warner, the 24-year-old is a bonafide superstar who is in great touch. Thus, I pick Rishabh Pant to easily score over 22.5 runs, to conclude my RCB vs DC match prediction. Take up this player bet tip at Dafabet who have offered lucrative odds of 1.87 on the youngster.
