Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Giants Betting Odds
DC to score more than 48 in powerplay @ 1.81 (Melbet)
Of all the six teams at the 2023 Women’s Premier League, Delhi Capitals have been notorious for swashbuckling starts to their innings with the bat. On all occasions except one, they have notched up at least 50 in the powerplay. And that is down to the in-form opening duo of Meg Lanning and Shafali Verma. Given those kinds of numbers, this is a sure-shot bet to take advantage of.
Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Giants Best Batters
Meg Lanning to be DC’s best batter (Melbet)
Nicknamed "the Megastar", Meg Lanning has achieved an incredible amount in the game so far. Captaining Delhi Capitals in the inaugural edition of the Women’s Premier League, Lanning has led from the front with the bat. In their last five games, the Aussie batter has amassed 221 runs at an average of 55.25, with two half-centuries to her name. At this point, it is your loss if you do not bet on her excellence.
Harleen Deol to be GG’s best batter (Melbet)
Yes, Gujarat Giants have had a poor start to their life in the Women’s Premier League. But Harleen Deol has been an exception to that story. The 24-year-old has posted respectable numbers with the bat from the middle order. In the four games so far, she has scored 133 runs at an average of 33.25 with an impressive strike rate of 143. Of the names in the Giants’ line-up, this is the one to look out for.
Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Giants Best Bowlers
Shikha Pandey to be DC’s best bowler (Melbet)
In recent years, Shikha Pandey has taken her game to a different level. Introduced into the Indian setup as the probable heir to Jhulan Goswami, Pandey has shown that she can handle a more all-round role in the game. This year, at the Women’s Premier League, she has led the line for Delhi Capitals with eight wickets from five games at a healthy economy rate of less than seven per over. Those numbers alone should inspire you enough to take this bet head-on.
Kim Garth to be GG’s best bowler (Melbet)
Gujarat Giants have struggled for positives in their season so far. Besides Harleen Deol with the bat, Kim Garth’s bowling may be the only other bright spark so far. The 26-year-old has struck five times in three games for the Giants with her medium-fast deliveries. And though her economy rate is on the higher side, she is a fairly safe bet to make.
Our Prediction
Favorites to win: Delhi Capitals
On paper, this seems like a straightforward game to call. After all, Delhi Capitals are flying in second place in the league, with four wins to their name already. To boost, they have two of the most in-form players in the league in Meg Lanning and Shikha Pandey leading their campaign. As for Gujarat Giants, they will be playing for survival on Thursday. No doubt, the Giants had assembled a squad strong enough to topple their high-flying opponents, but four losses in five matches did’t help the cause.
