We get it, Delhi Capitals have been vulnerable when it comes to putting up decent opening partnerships, but we have reasons to believe they are going to score at least 24 runs before the fall of the first wicket in the upcoming game. In the seven matches played so far, the Delhi Capitals openers have put up a total of 242 runs, at a rate of 34.57 runs per innings, with three totals north of 23 runs. Meanwhile, their openers, Prithvi Shaw and Shikhar Dhawan averages 28.85 and 33.50 in this season so far, which proves they are not going through a run-drought.

Meanwhile, the Capitals have played three matches in Dubai so far, having registered opening stands of 6, 94, 68, having stitched together 168 runs, scoring at a rate of 56 runs per match, with two totals of over 23 runs. On the other hand, in the seven matches Rajasthan Royals have played so far, they have conceded a whopping 384 runs (56, 183, 36, 25, 49, 12, 23), at a rate of 54.85 runs per match before the fall of the first wicket, having conceded less than 24 runs on just two occasions. In the last three H2H matches between these two sides, Delhi Capitals' opening stands were 12, 28, 72, with two scores fulfilling our criteria. What are you waiting for? Just place your bets.

Rajasthan Royals to hit under 12.5 fours @ 1.96 (Sportsbet.io)

The way Rajasthan Royals have played this season, is pretty disappointing and that the number of boundaries they have hit reflects the same. In seven matches played so far, the IPL side has hit a total of 67 boundaries (9, 14, 4, 9, 11, 8, 12), at a rate of 9.57 hits per match, having struck more than 12 in just one of those matches. Overall, there are no batsman from Rajasthan Royals featuring in the list of top 15 boundary hitters this season, with Steve Smith - their best, with a count of 15 from seven matches (2.14 per match).

In the last five H2H matches against Delhi Capitals, the team has registered a total of 59 boundaries (8, 8, 23, 9, 11), at a rate of 11.8 boundaries per match, even though the Royals have managed to hit at least 12 boundaries in just one of those games. Having played two matches at the venue so far, this season, the Royals have struck 16 boundaries (8 hits per match on average), having failed to hit more than 12 boundaries in each of those matches. On the flip side, Delhi Capitals have played three matches at the venue and never conceded 13 boundaries or more in any of them. I hope you have placed the bet by now.
