Six domestic clubs play in the One Day International tournament and these two teams – Cape Cobras and Titans, have won the competition more than thrice each. It naturally sets the tone for a fascinating encounter but what is more interesting here – the amount of money you can make when these two sides collide at the Newlands Stadium in Cape Town on Wednesday. I have gathered six betting tips you and all you have got to do is go through these bets and place your money accordingly, and the cash will follow its own path into your bank accounts. So, let’s get going:
Titans may not have had the best of starts to the Momentum Cup 2020 campaign, but you should know that they are the defending champions. Having won the title five times in the past, they are very much one of the contenders for the title again. Yes, this is an early stage into the tournament, and they have lost two out of their three games so far, but it is just a matter of time that they will bounce back and nothing better than doing it against Cape Cobras. In the last matches that Titans and Cape Cobras have met, the former has prevailed quite comfortably on five occasions. When the two met at the Newlands Stadium in Cape Town on the last three occasions, the Titans have had the last laugh on two occasions, despite being the latter’s home. Those two victories were also massive – winning by 158 runs and 83 runs respectively. Royal Panda is offering odds of 2.10 for Titans to win and I have placed my bet already on Heinrich Klassen and co. What about you?
Let’s not beat around the bush therefore, I will come straight to the point that matters at the end of the day - Titans boasts a number of big hitters in their squad in the form of Henry Davids, Tony de Zorzi, Dean Elgar and Heinrich Klassen and they will be flexing their muscles hard as the dimensions of the Newlands aren’t too big. Clearing the ropes cannot get easier, considering it is a batsman’s paradise and that is exactly what these hitters will be looking for on Wednesday. In the last seven fixtures between the two sides, Titans have clobbered 30 sixes, and, on the other hand, Cape Cobras could only manage to hit 10 of them. That is exactly three times the number of the sixes tha Cobras have struck and as a result, this market could not be safer than what it is already. In the last three meetings at the Newlands, Titans have cleared the boundary ropes 25 times while the hosts could only hit 10 sixes. There is a clear daylight between the two teams when it comes to hitting sixes and consider yourself to be extremely lucky that the odds is 2.00 for Titans to hit more sixes in the match.
Here comes the third and one of the most guaranteed markets after the previous one. The difference in the average of the highest opening partnership will startle you as it did to me. In the last seven head to head encounters, the average first wicket partnership for Titans is 86.28, while the Cape Cobras averages 16.14 for the first wicket. Can you believe it yet? Relax, even I felt the same the first time I saw and my eyes almost popped out! In the last three head to head clashes at the Newlands Stadium in Cape Town, the Titans averaged 105.33 for the first wicket stand, while the Cobras could only manage an average of 16.66. The Titans also registered one of the highest opening partnership of 313 runs between Henry Davids and Jonathan Vandier at this venue three years ago. And yet you are here still reading, while you are letting the odds of 1.90 slip through your hands. Do you really want to miss out on this unbelievable opportunity of making almost double your investment?
This 24-year old exciting talent from Cape Town has announced himself in quite some fashion in the Momentum ODI Cup 2020 edition. I won’t beat around the bush and go on and on about how good Hamza is and how incredible he can be, but I will simply put forward the numbers that matter so that you get done by placing the bets quickly. In three matches so far, Zubair Hamza has scored 208 runs at a sound average of 69.33 including a hundred and one half-century. Therefore, it became pretty easy to understand that Hamza is the man in form for the home side on Wednesday. Now, he is also (till now) the highest run getter for Cape Cobras and the third highest run scorer in the 39th season of the Momentum ODI Cup. Take a look at his last four List A scores – 129, 58, 21 and 85. How much did these scores help you or did they make you feel a whole lot better than before? If it did, then hop on to the Bet 365 website as they are offering odds of 4.50 for Hamza to be the top team batsman for Cape Cobras on Wednesday against the Titans.
Although he is from Cape Town, Dayyan Galiem is featuring for the Titans in this ongoing season of the Momentum ODI Cup. Dayyan Galiem has picked up six wickets in three matches at an average of 22.83 and a strike rate of 27.0. He holds a decent record in his List A career in which he has 38 scalps to his name at an average 28.71. His figures in his last four matches are as follows – 4/27, 0/68, 2/42 and 3/40. As you can see, Galiem has picked up nine wickets in his last four matches and that wicket-taking ability makes him a lot more dangerous in this format of the game. If you are to believe the numbers and the statistics I just mentioned, then hop, skip and jump to Bet 365 as they are offering odds of 5.00 for Galiem to be the top team bowler for the Titans against Cape Cobras on Wednesday.
Now as we have reached the third player market of this match, I will give you a moment to relax a bit and focus again because every single market I mentioned is worth playing for and the returns are incredible. Here I am going to talk about Tony de Zorzi, who is the highest run getter for Titans and the fifth highest run scorer in this ongoing season of the Momentum ODI Cup this season. With 149 runs in three matches at a sound average of 49.66 including a fifty (a score of 98 – missed out on a brilliant hundred), Zorzi will be the batsman to watch out for. He already has 1157 under his name at a decent average of 35.06 in List A cricket, including two centuries and six half tons. He was the top team batsman for Titans against Warriors in the previous match and he could well be on top of his game against the Titans as well. Bet 365 is offering odds of 5.00 for Zorzi to be the best batsman for his side and you might as well go for it.
You can place INR 1000 bets on the above-mentioned markets individually and win INR 14500. However, if you place a INR 1000 bet on all of them at once, you could stand a chance to win INR 112500! So, it is for you to choose! Risk Factor: High. Since the odds are pretty high for all the markets, therefore the risk involved in this is pretty high, but where’s the fun without risk, right?
