Rajasthan Kings vs New York Superstar Strikers Chances of Winning
Rajasthan Kings had a comfortable outing against Delhi Devils before this fixture. The former’s bowling unit was rather generous in allowing runs to be scored off them as the Devils secured a total of 164 runs. This, however, did not prove to be a deterrent to Robin Uthappa’s squad who took this head-on and chased it down with seven wickets still in hand. Angelo Perera was especially impressive with a knock of exactly a ton which was absolutely crucial.
New York Superstar Strikers, conversely, suffered their first loss of the season against Kandy Samp Army in their last game. The Superstar Strikers batted first and managed to achieve a score of 153 runs which is terrific in this format. Unfortunately, they were no match for their rivals who breezed past them and won by five wickets. They were on a three-match winning streak leading up to the previous match but ran out of luck.
- Rajasthan Kings chance of winning - 52%
- New York Superstar Strikers chance of winning - 48%

Rajasthan Kings vs New York Superstar Strikers Betting Tips
Rajasthan Kings to score high before first dismissal
Robin Uthappa, Rajasthan Kings’ skipper and wicket-keeper batter, has been their linchpin on the opening front. He has opened the innings for the team in every game so far while his partners have been shuffled. In the first two matches, he opened with Kirk Edwards and together, they scored 42 runs and eight runs before the first dismissal. The previous two games, however, have seen him lead-off alongside Jatin Saxena and so far they have collaborated for 84 runs and 12 runs. Although they are blowing hot and cold with their first wicket partnerships, they will be expected to secure a decent one in the upcoming game.
Rajasthan Kings vs New York Superstar Strikers Toss Prediction
The pitch at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium has been somewhat favorable to the chasing side in the past few games held here. It looked as though the momentum was with the batting side in the first few matches but the past few encounters paint a different picture. The chasing side has come out on top on more occasions despite having to face big targets which should make the choice easy for the toss winner.
Weather Report
Clear skies are anticipated on match day with absolutely no chance of rainfall. The temperatures are likely to be around 34 degrees Celsius.

Rajasthan Kings vs New York Superstar Strikers Betting Odds
Rajasthan Kings to have a better opening partnership than New York Superstar Strikers
New York Superstar Strikers have maintained steady opening partnerships in their last four matches, having scored 6, 17, 23 and 22 runs before their first dismissal. Albeit quite consistent in the past few matches, their partnerships are not particularly remarkable. Rajasthan Kings, on the flip side, have been a tad inconsistent in setting up their opening stands but are arguably better than New York Superstar Strikers. In their previous four games, they have scored 12, 84, 8 and 42 runs before the fall of their first wicket. They have been more aggressive on the opening front and it is expected to pay off in the next game.
Rajasthan Kings vs New York Superstar Strikers Best Batters
Angelo Perera to be Rajasthan Kings’ Best Batter
Angelo Perera scored an invincible 100 runs against Delhi Devils and attained an exceptional strike rate of 232.56. He took a while to settle in given that he has amassed a total of 126 runs in four innings. After the last performance, he is the top pick to be their leading batter.
Lahiru Thirimanne to be New York Superstar Strikers’ Best Batter
Lahiru Thirimanne is the top run scorer of the team with 110 runs in four innings. His past two games have been a tad unimpressive, where he scored 18 runs and a single run, but he is expected to bounce back and become their top batter.
Rajasthan Kings vs New York Superstar Strikers Best Bowlers
Manpreet Gony to be Rajasthan Kings’ Best Bowler
Manpreet Gony is the team’s top wicket-taker with seven wickets in four innings. In their previous match against Delhi Devils, he gave away 27 runs in three overs, claimed three wickets and ended up with an economy rate of 9.00. He will be expected to come out on top in the next game as well.
Rahul Sharma to be New York Superstar Strikers’ Best Bowler
Rahul Sharma delivered three overs in his spell against Kandy Samp Army in the last game, allowing 26 runs to be scored off him. He bagged two wickets and achieved an economy rate of 8.70. This recent performance puts him in a good position to become their top bowler once again.
