Dubai Giants vs Punjab Royals Prediction & Betting Tips 2023
Naman Ojha has had a disappointing showing thus far in this tournament. In the three games, Masood has scored 31 runs with an average of 10.03 runs which is pretty low for a top order batsman. We expect Ojha’s struggles to continue and him to score low in the upcoming game.
Gurkeerat Singh Mann has had a solid campaign for Dubai Giants thus far. In the last two matches, Mann has scored 45 and 42 and has been a key contributor in those matches. So far he has scored 88 runs which makes us believe he will score well in the upcoming game.
