To make this Monday even more fruitful, I have assorted the top three bets for you and listed them below. Just go through my analysis and invest strategically to win loads of money by the end of the day.

Rishabh Pant to score over 18.5 runs @ 1.85 (Sportsbet.io)

The youngster might not be having the best IPL season so far, but he is doing enough to score at least 29 runs in the upcoming match. In the last three matches, his scores were - 21, 36, 27, having amassed a total of 84 runs, at a rate of 28 runs per innings, with him scoring at least 19 runs in each of those matches. Overall, in 10 matches he has played this season, the southpaw has scored a total of 274 runs, averaging 30.44 runs per innings, with eight scores north of 28 runs in the same time frame.

In the last five matches against Royal Challengers Bangalore, his scores were - 37, 7, 18, 61, 85, having racked up a total of 208 runs, scoring at a rate of 41.6 runs per innings, with three scores of at least 19 runs in the above-mentioned matches. Having played eight matches against the IPL rivals so far, Pant has registered 311 runs, at a rate of 38.88 runs per innings, which supports our cause. In the two matches played at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium so far, the batsman scored 27 and 28 runs respectively. There is no way we could overlook this bet.

Virat Kohli to score over 28.5 runs @ 1.85 (Sportsbet.io)

So what if he has failed in the last two matches? He is Virat Kohli after all at the end. The skipper has scored a total of 431 runs, at a rate of 47.88 runs per innings, having scored at least 29 runs in seven of those matches. Having played three matches in Abu Dhabi this season, his scores were - 72 n.o, 18 n.o, 9, having scored 99 runs and was dismissed just once in the same. In the last five matches against Delhi Capitals, he registered scores of 43, 23, 41, 70, 92 n.o, racking up 269 runs, maintaining an average of 67.25 runs per innings, with four scores north of 28 runs.

Even in the last match against Delhi Capitals, he scored a total of 43 runs, but failed to guide his team to a victory. Overall, in 23 matches Kohli has played against Delhi Capitals in his career, the Indian skipper has scored 892 runs, scoring at a rate of 63.71 runs per innings, which also supports our case. In his 190-match IPL career so far, the explosive batsman has piled up a total of 5843 runs, at a rate of 38.44 runs per innings, which is impressive. With odds of 1.85 on offer, we need to invest on this particular bet.

Shreyas Iyer to score over 22.5 runs @ 1.85 (Sportsbet.io)

The pillar in Delhi Capitals' middle order, Shreyas Iyer has had a mixed campaign this season, with him not at his ultimate best so far, yet scoring quite a few runs in the process. In the last five matches, Iyer has scored a total of 116 runs (25, 7, 47, 14, 23), at a rate of 23.2 runs per innings, with three scores of more than 22 runs. Overall, in 13 matches played this season, the right-hander has scored a total of 414 runs, maintaining an average of 34.50 runs per innings, with eight scores of at least 23 runs.

In the last five matches against Royal Challengers Bangalore, his scores were - 11, 52, 67, 32, 52, having racked up 214 runs, at a rate of 42.8 runs per innings, having made north of 22 runs in four of those matches. In the three matches played so far at this venue, his scores read - 17, 42, 47, scoring 106 runs, averaging 35.33 runs per innings, with two scores of at least 23 runs. Having played 75 matches in his IPL career so far, the right-hander has scored 2095 runs, at a rate of 31.26 runs per innings, which also supports our cause. I have already placed my bet.
