Kuwait vs Bahrain Chance of Winning
Led by impeccable performances from Meet Bhavsar and R Sandaruwan in the batting department followed by Shahrukh Quddus and Parvindar Kumar’s bowling, Kuwait have done well to hang in there and make sure that they have a win on board. A win in the next game will keep them in haunt for the next round of matches - further strengthening their bid to make their first Asia Cup appearance next year.
On the other hand, Bahrain haven’t had a lot of individual glories, apart from Imran Ali Butt and Imran Anwar with the bat. While the duo have fifties against their names, others have spectacularly underperformed - but they will aim to change that narrative in the upcoming clash that would pretty much decide their sojourn in the tournament.

Kuwait vs Bahrain Betting Tips
Bet on Imran Ali Butt to make good runs against Kuwait and help Bahrain secure some sanity in the encounter. What it, in turn, can do is help us make good bucks from the clash. Kuwait’s R Sandaruwan is another player who has terrific potential to deliver the goods for us. How can I miss out on Meet Bhavsar, who has been one of the most consistent batters for the side since making his T20 debut in 2019?
