Seattle Orcas vs Texas Super Kings Head to Head
As this is the inaugural season, we do not have historic data for both teams. This would be the first head to head game between the teams.
Seattle Orcas vs Texas Super Kings Betting Odds
Both teams would have a low (under) opening partnership
Both teams have struggles to get a good opening stand in the tournament so far. Texas Super Kings have managed to get an opening stand of 12, 6 and 20 averaging 12.66 in the tournament. On the other hand, Texas have conceded an average of 11.33 runs as opening stand in those games. Even though Seattle have managed to get a great start to the campaign, like their opponents they haven’t managed to get a good opening stand in the first two games, averaging 14.5 runs thus far. Looking into these underlined states we believe both teams would struggle to get a good start in the game and it's a great opportunity to encash upon.

Nauman Anwar to be Seattle Orcas’s top batter
Even though the sample size is too small, Nauman Anwar has been the most consistent performer for Seattle Orcas in the first two games. With scores of 30 and 48 in the two outings, we believe Anwar would be in the thick of things and would be among runs in the upcoming game which makes him our top pick for the game.
Devon Conway to be Texas Super Kings’s top batter
Having smashed two half centuries in first three games, Devon Conway is the leading run scorer for Texas Super Kings thus far. Conway’s breathtaking innings of 74 off 55 balls helped Texas register an important victory against MI New York which makes him our top pick for the game.
Seattle Orcas vs Texas Super Kings Top Team Bowlers
Harmeet Singh to be Seattle Orcas’s top bowler
Even though Cameron Gannon is the leading wicket taker for Seattle Orcas in the tournament we would still side with Harmeet Singh in the upcoming game mainly due to the fact he managed to bowl with incredible consistency and has maintained an economy of 4.88 which is phenomenal in T20 format and apart from that has managed to take three wickets thus far which also makes him our top pick for the game.
Mohammad Mohsin to be Texas Super Kings’s top bowler
Along with Devon Conway, Mohammad Mohsin has been the best performer for Texas Super Kings so far in the tournament. With seven wickets in first three games, Mohsin is the leading wicket taker for Texas in the tournament which also makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Our Prediction
Favorites to win: Texas Super Kings
Seattle Orcas have had a brilliant start to the season as they have taken maximum points thus far in the tournament. After a convincing victory in the season opener against Washington Freedom, Seattle outfit registered their second victory in the last outing as San Francisco failed to chase down 178 and were bowled out for 142 as Seattle won the game by 35 runs.
Like their opponents with two wins in three games, Texas Super Kings have had a solid start to the season and are level on points with Seattle Orcas and San Francisco Unicorns at the summit. In the last game, Texas Super Kings conceded 39 runs in the last four overs as they managed to successfully defend a sub-par score of 155 and eventually won the game by 17 runs.
Even though Texas are top of the table there still is a lot of room for improvement especially in their batting department which on paper has the most fire power among all teams in the tournament. Considering the fact how menacing and deep Texas outfit’s batting line is, the bookmakers have coined them as favourites in this top of the table clash. We believe Texas top order would finally come good in this upcoming game and would take them over the line in this much anticipated clash between the two best teams in the tournament so far.
- Seattle Orcas to win @ 2.00 (PariMatch)
- Texas Super Kings to win @ 1.79 (PariMatch)
