Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians match prediction 13th match

Kings XI Punjab vs Mumbai Indians | Player Bets to Watch Out For

Kings XI Punjab will take on Mumbai Indians in match number 13 of the Indian Premier League 2020 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium, in Abu Dhabi, on October 1, Thursday.

Kings XI Punjab and Mumbai Indians have had a eerily similar start to their Indian Premier League 2020 campaign. Both Kings XI Punjab and Mumbai Indians have won one and lost two matches so far in this ongoing season of the IPL and both those losses have been agonisingly close. Now these two big sides will lock horns at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Thursday and there’s so much to talk about. Two brilliant sides just have not been able to find the right combination and rhythm and that has hurt them in those two respective losses. However, courtesy of a decent net run rate, Kings XI Punjab and Mumbai Indians are currently placed fourth and fifth on the Indian Premier League 2020 points table. Now, while we let them prepare for this important fixture, I have gathered three of the best team markets for you to bet on from this game. So without any further ado, let us get going:

KL Rahul to hit at least one six

It has been raining in sixes in this ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League and KL Rahul of course added to that list. Irrespective of the shape, size and dimensions of the grounds, Rahul has just backed his ability to clear the boundary ropes. KL Rahul has already scored 9 sixes in three matches in this edition of the Indian Premier League already and that is an average of 3 hits per game. In the previous season of the IPL, Rahul smashed 25 sixes in 14 matches, which is an average of more than one six per game. In the season prior to that, Rahul managed to clear the ropes 32 times in 14 games and that also is an average of more than two sixes per game. For us to win this market, we need the skipper of the Kings XI Punjab to hit just one six against Mumbai Indians and it should be a walk in the park for the man, who is in red-hot form. Bet 365 is offering odds of 1.53 for this particular market and I am still surprised you are still here and have not placed that bet yet.

KL Rahul to be the top scorer for Kings XI Punjab

We already have talked about how good KL Rahul has been in almost every single format of the game and he is doing it in style again. It is almost like a ritual every time he walks out to bat, he WILL score runs and that too plenty of them. KL Rahul is the highest run scorer of the tournament already (yawns, DUH! OBVIOUSLY) with 222 runs under his belt at a jaw-dropping average of 111.0 with one century and one half century in three matches. In the 2019 season of the Indian Premier League, Rahul piled up 593 runs at an average of 53.90 and in the season prior to that, Rahul racked up 659 runs at an average of 54.91! These numbers are simply INSANE! He has 4298 runs at an average of 43.91 in his T20 career and the captain of the Kings XI Punjab is in no mood to put a tap on that run flow. Rahul has 1474 runs while playing for Kings XI Punjab at an astounding average of 58.96 and that again is incredible. He has played 10 matches against Mumbai Indians and has notched up 486 runs at an outstanding average of 69.43. LeoVegas is offering odds of just 3.00 for Rahul to be the top team batsman for Kings XI Punjab and that should be doable only if Mayank Agarwal does not eclipse his skipper!

Mohammad Shami to be the top wicket taker for Kings XI Punjab

Mohammad Shami has been sensational with the ball and I am quite delighted about the fact that after quite a while I am talking about a bowler in one of my pieces. The moment I spot opportunities to make money heavily, I tend to cash in on them and bring them out here and present them in front of you so you can mint money from them as well. Now, coming back to Shami, he is the joint-highest wicket taker of the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League with 7 scalps to his name from just three matches. In the previous season of the IPL, Shami was the highest wicket taker for Kings XI Punjab with 19 wickets from 14 matches. While playing for Kings XI Punjab, Mohammad Shami has 26 wickets against his name in just 17 matches. When he plays against the Mumbai Indians, Shami has added 6 wickets in 6 games and that is a scalp per game. He has played six T20 matches so far in this calendar year and Shami has picked up 9 wickets. The kind of form he is in with the ball, I am counting on him to be at the top of that wickets column against Mumbai Indians and therefore you too, should head over to LeoVegas website, which is offering odds of 3.50 for Shami to be the top team bowler.
