Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Rajasthan Royals match prediction 15th match

Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Rajasthan Royals | Three bets to make your rich this weekend

Nothing much to separate these two sides, with them winning a couple of matches and losing the other. With the IPL in its initial stages, there is no pressure as such on the players at the moment. But a win can propel either of the teams to the top of the points table for the time being - which gives this match some importance. The Sheikh Zayed Stadium, in Abu Dhabi will play host to this exciting contest between Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Apart from enjoying the exciting contest, we have a great opportunity to win loads of money by investing on three top three bets from the market. I have already handpicked the top deals for you and listed them below. Go through my analysis and place your bets to win handsome rewards.

Steve Smith to score over 22.5 runs @ 1.72 (Bet 365)

There’s no way we can ignore this man, can we? He is opening in T20s for the first time in a tournament, but Steve Smith has passed the test with flying colours it seems. In the first three matches, his scores were - 69, 50, 3, having amassed 122 runs, averaging 40.66 per innings, with two scores of more than 22 runs. Overall, in the previous edition of the IPL, the Australian scored a total of 319 runs, at a rate of 39.87, with five scores of at least 23 runs in the same.

In the last five matches against Royal Challengers Bangalore, Smith's scores were - 38, 12, 31, having racked up 81 runs, at a rate of 37 per innings, with two scores within our range. Overall, in 15 matches against the IPL rivals, the right-hander has mustered 290 runs, averaging 32.22 runs per innings. Moreover, in the entire IPL career, the star player has featured in 84 matches, scored 2144 runs, maintaining an average of 37.61 runs per match. There is no way we should ignore this particular bet.

Aaron Finch to hit over 2.5 fours @ 1.72 (Bet 365)

Another Australian in our list - Aaron Finch is making an appearance in the Indian Premier League after a year of absence. So, far he has hit 11 boundaries (1, 3, 7) this season, at a rate of almost four per innings, with him hitting at least three in two of those matches. The cricketer was in fine form until the Covid-19 outbreak, with him playing six T20Is this year, during which he registered 29 boundaries (4, 4, 7, 6, 2, 6), at a rate of almost five per match, with him hitting at least three in five of those matches.

Overall, in 290 T20s, the opening batsman has hit a total of 882 boundaries, which is equivalent to over three boundaries per match. Even in the 2019 Big Bash League, the batsman hit 23 boundaries, at a rate of over 2,5 fours per innings, which is also quite laudable. I am convinced that going by the form he is enjoying the past year or so, there is no reason why he should not score at least three boundaries in the upcoming match.

AB De Villiers to score over 28.5 runs @ 1.83 (Sportsbet.io)

The one and only AB De Villiers is next on our list, with him already starting the season with a bang. In the previous three matches, the Protean has scored - 55, 28, 51, having amassed 134 runs, averaging 67 runs per match, with two scores of over 28 runs. Overall, the batsman played 13 matches last season, racked up 442 runs, averaging 44.20 runs per innings, with five scores of more than 28 runs.

In the last five matches against Rajasthan Royals, the South African's scores read - 13, 53, 20, 66, 57, having piled up 209 runs, at a rate of 41.8 runs per innings, with three scores of at least 28 runs in the same. Overall, in 18 matches against the IPL rivals, the batsman has scored 581 runs, maintaining an average of 41.50 per match, which also fits our case perfectly. Having played 157 matches in his IPL career, the batsman has amassed 4529 runs, averaging 40.43 runs per match, which is exceptional. What are you waiting for? Just place your bets.
