Adelaide Strikers are set to host Melbourne Renegades in match 33 of the ongoing Big Bash League at the Adelaide Oval this Sunday evening.

The points table might suggest this match might be a lopsided affair, but it doesn’t mean we are going to have any shortage of action. With players like Shaun Marsh and Rashid Khan colliding against each other, be prepared for some fireworks at the Adelaide Oval. Apart from the entertainment angle, let us shift to the productive one – the betting odds. There’s a lot to be won this Sunday evening, which is sure to give you a boost ahead of next week. Just go through my analysis, invest on the best odds and get returns by the end of the match.

Mr. Khan is Adelaide’s top bowler this season

Rashid Khan to be Adelaide Strikers top bowler @ 2.75

Do you remember a cricketer as entertaining as Rashid Khan in the last year or so? Although he’s second to none, and here’s an opportunity that he is going to help earn you some easy money in the upcoming game. He just needs to be the top bowler for his side, not too daunting a task for him.

His figures in the last five matches – 4/22, 1/34, 1/44, 2/15, 1/23 (9 wickets in 5 matches), along with being the top bowler in two of those matches. Overall, he is the highest wicket taker for his side with 12 scalps in just 7 matches at an average of 15.33.

In the last H2H match against the Melbourne Renegades, he took a match winning haul of 2 for 15. His record at the Adelaide Oval is quite enviable, having scripted figures of 4/22, 1/44, 3/40 at the venue in this edition. With all the stats backing him up to shine with the ball once again, there’s no reason why we should not place the bet and almost triple up our investment.

Jake Weatherald has hit 11 sixes in 7

Jake Weatherald to hit over 0.5 sixes @ 1.80

Less risk, low odds, but this one is a guaranteed one.

The opener, along with being phenomenal this season, has never shied from calling the big shots. In the last five matches this season, he has hit a total of 8 sixes (1.6 per match), which gives a green light for the bet. In four of the above five matches, he has hit at least one six, proves that he is prone to take the aerial route quite often. But, that’s not a fact which would compel you to invest, isn’t it? Read along and I’m sure you will have a change of opinion.

In this season, he is the highest six hitter for his side, having struck 11 sixes in the 7 matches he’s played so far averaging more than 1 per game. In the three matches played at the venue so far, the Aussie has racked up 8 sixes (2.66 per game), proves that he is quite comfortable playing at home. His big hitting prowess is not an unknown fact, having hit a total of 46 maximums in 40 T20 matches he’s featured in so far. I hope you are convinced by now that this a full-proof bet and ignoring it would not be a wise decision.

The Aussie averages 65.25 this season

Beau Webster to score over 20.5 @ 1.87

Beau Webster has been in sublime form and we are expecting him to do the same on Sunday and be our money maker. The bet looks quite simple and full-proof to me, Webster has to score 21 runs or above. His scores in the last five matches – 25, 59, 29, 17, 37 (average of 33.4), as visible, he has scored north of 21 in four of the above occasions.

His record against the Adelaide Strikers has been good, with scores of 37, 36, and 33 in the last H2H games. Moreover, Webster is the second highest run scorer for Melbourne Renegades this season having amassed 261 runs at an astounding average of 65.25 which is remarkable. Overall, in T20s, in 23 matches he featured in, the right hander scored at an average of 36.25! Unless something bizarre happens, Webster is scoring over 21 and winning us our bet which promises returns of almost two times the investment.
