Headline: 2019-20 Bangladesh Premier League Eliminator | Chattogram Challengers vs Dhaka Platoon | 3 lucrative bets from the eliminator
Chattogram Challengers will face-off against Dhaka Platoon in the eliminator of the 2019-20 Bangladesh Premier League at the Sher-e-Bangla Stadium this Monday afternoon.
After one and a month of exciting cricket action, we have finally approached the business end of the BPL with Chattogram Challengers and Dhaka Platoon locking horns in the eliminator this Monday. While the temperatures will soar, it will be a perfect opportunity for punters like us to take advantage of the situation and overflow your wallet by investing on the best odds in the market. I have analysed the best three bets for your reference.
Stitching up 27 runs looks like a cakewalk for a player like Tamim Iqbal at the Shere Bangla Stadium. Dafabet’s offer is a generous one and we should not deny them. Easy cash coming your way on the first day of the week is no less than a dream. In the last five matches, the southpaw has consistently given the push to the innings in the top order and managed to maintain an average of 33.6. Going along the lines of his record in the venue, the Bangladeshi has scored 164 runs at a rate of 32.8, having scored north of 26.5 on three occasions. His knack of bringing out his bet in crunch matches separates him from others, having scored an astounding 141-run knock in the final of the BPL last year in Dhaka. Don’t be surprised if he recreates something similar. Iqbal has already scored 393 runs this season at an average of 43.66 including three fifties. This is a bet which promises you guaranteed money.
Well, there’s not even a doubt that Chattogram is going to outnumber their opponents in the upcoming match. Overlooking the might be a sin and a lost opportunity to double up your investment within hours. Yes, you heard it right.
In the last five matches, the Challengers have always outnumbered their opponents, having hit a total of 40 sixes (8 per match) and conceded just 19 (3.8 per match). Meanwhile Dhaka have been the better side in just two of their last five matches. These two teams have met twice this season, with the Challengers clearing the ropes 18 times compared to Platoon’s tally of 15.
Even in the last five matches played at the venue, Chattogram has been the better side each time. Moreover, the team has three of the top five six hitters this season in the likes of Chadwick Walton, Imrul Kayes and Lendl Simmonds, helping their team accumulate a total of 109 sixes this season, which is 29 more than what Dhaka have managed to hit. With Chris Gayle adding to the glamour, everything is pointing in one way. If you still haven’t placed the bet, hurry up!
Rubel Hossain to be Chattogram Challengers’ top bowler @ 4.0
A riskier bet than the previous two, but look at the rate of return, it’s worth it.
The speedster has bowled a few magical spells this season and Chattograms’ title aspirations rests on him to a major extent. 8 wickets in the last 4 matches, only stats can explain his purple patch better. Even in the last five matches at the Shere Bangla Stadium, Rubel has scalped 6 times.
Overall, he is the second highest wicket taker for his side this season with 16 wickets from 11 matches at an average of 18.25. Mehidy Hasan is still the top bowler for the Chattogram this season, wondering why I haven’t backed up the spinner?
Mehidy Hasan is likely to miss the game, so Rubel Hossain is responsible for leading the attack. Moreover, Rubel Hossain is an experienced campaigner and has played at the highest level, so expect him to produce something special in the eliminator. If you ignore this bet, it’s an opportunity lost.
