Kings XI Punjab to hit over 11.5 fours @ 1.61 (Sportsbet.io)

Simple equation, isn't it? Kings XI Punjab needs to hit just 12 boundaries in the upcoming match to win us easy money this weekend. In the 10 matches played this season, the IPL side has hit a total of 136 boundaries, at a rate of 13.6 boundaries per match, having hit at least 12 in seven of those matches. KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal have hit a total of 46 and 39 boundaries respectively, at the second and third spot respectively.

On the flip side, Sunrisers Hyderabad have let in 59 boundaries (12, 12, 12, 9, 14), striking at a rate of almost 11 hits per match, having struck at least 12 in four of those matches. I hope you have placed the bet by now.

Total sixes to be over 10.5 @ 1.57 (Bet 365)

Even though the ground in Dubai is one of the bigger ones compared to others, the number of sixes have increased considerably in the past few matches. For instance, in the last five matches Sunrisers Hyderabad played at the venue, the number of sixes hit was 61 (12, 11, 15, 16, 7), at a rate of 12.2 hits per match, with the teams striking at least 11 in four of those matches.

There is no other option but to invest on this particular bet.

Kings XI Punjab's highest opening partnership over 25.5 runs @ 1.87 (Leo Vegas)

Without a doubt, KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal have been the best opening pair in the 2020 Indian Premier League so far, with them stitching up a total of 623 runs for the opening stand, at a rate of 62.3 runs per innings, having registered at least 26 runs in eight of those matches. Even in the last five matches at the venue, they have amassed a total of 185 runs (17, 33, 11, 61, 57), at a rate of 37 runs per match, having made at least 26 in three of those matches.

With the openers in fine form and a do-or-die match on the radar, we are expecting the duo to put on at least 26 runs before the fall of the first wicket. I have already placed my bet. What about you?
