Shikhar Dhawan to score over 26.5 runs @ 1.87 (Leo Vegas)

As we are quite aware of the fact that Shikhar Dhawan is the big match player and this is Delhi Capitals' biggest match in over a decade, with a win set to take them to the final of the 2020 IPL.

In the last four matches against Mumbai Indians, Dhawan had registered scores of 0, 69 n.o, 35, 43, racking up a total of 147 runs, averaging 36.75 runs per innings, with three scores in our required range. Overall, in 22 matches against the Mumbai-based team, the southpaw has amassed 733 runs, scoring at a rate of 43.12 runs per innings, which also supports our cause. In the 173 IPL matches he has played so far, the batsman has scored 5104 runs, maintaining an average of 34.48 runs per innings. There’s no option but to invest on this bet.

Rishabh Pant to score over 20.5 Runs @ 1.87 (Leo Vegas)

India's young sensation Rishabh Pant has been playing a strong supporting act in the Delhi Capitals batting line-up this season, with him scoring quite a few runs. In the 11 matches played this season, the batsman has scored a total of 282 runs, averaging 31.33 runs per innings, with him registering at least 21 runs in seven of those matches. Having played five matches in Dubai this season, his scores were - 21, 36, 14, 37, 37 n.o, having amassed a total of 145 runs, at a rate of 36.25 runs per innings, with four scores in our range.

His overall IPL career stats looks pretty impressive as well, with the southpaw piling up 2018 runs at a rate of 35.40 runs per innings. We are expecting at least … runs from his blade in the upcoming match and I have already placed my bet. What about you?
