Gujarat Giants vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Betting Odds
We have done proper research for you to find out the best betting odds available in the market to simplify your research for the match between Gujarat Giants and Royal Challegers Bangalore in the Women’s Premier League, set to take place on Wednesday.
GG to score under 45.5 runs @ 1.81 (Melbet)
Gujarat Giants’ 5.2 run rate in the initial 6 overs is the worst run rate for a team in the competition. Their top order has struggled to get going in the powerplay and leaves a lot of work for the batters to play. While bowling Gujarat starts well in the beginning and goes for an economy rate of only 6.6. But it is in the final five overs where they concede a lot of runs and has an economy rate of 13.9 which is the worst among all the teams in the competition. Hence, it would be prudent to go for an underpar total here.
Gujarat Giants vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Best Batters
Hemalatha to be GG’s best batter (Melbet)
28-year-old Indian all-rounder Dayalan Hemalatha has shown promise with her batting performance in the two matches so far, despite Gujarat losing both. The batter has not been dismissed even once in WPL 2023 and can play the role of a finisher aptly if supported by rest of the middle order. Hemalatha has been especially effective in WT20s when chasing a target, where she has maintained an average of 23.4 in comparison to her average of 11.2 while batting first.
Mandhana to be RCB’s best batter (Melbet)
Smriti Mandhana averages around 27 while batting in India, she has found it difficult to capitalize on the starts she has been getting for her team. Smriti has an average of 55.3 batting first at this venue with an SR close to 170, she’s got two fifties batting first on three occasions and has dealt most of her runs in boundaries. Hence, it is prudent to expect Mandhana to be top run-scorer.
Gujarat Giants vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Best Bowlers
Garth to be GG’s top bowler (Melbet)
After Deandra Dottin’s exit from the WPL 2023, Gujarat Giants roped in Australian-Irish pacer Kim Garth as a replacement. The pacer delivered in the very first match as she picked up a five-wicket haul. In 2010, Garth made her debut for the Irish team at the age of just 14 years and 70 days, making her the youngest Irishwoman to debut, third-youngest overall. Garth moved to Australia in 2020 and made her international debut for the Aussies in 2022. The right-arm medium fast bowler has picked up 108 wickets in 108 WT20 matches at a decent economy of 6.2.
Megan Schutt to be RCB’s best bowler (Melbet)
Meghan Schutt has always held sway over the opponents in Asian conditions, primarily because of her variance. She is the all-time highest wicket-taker in Women’s T20s, with 244 wickets of her own and that tells a story of its own. If her nuisance continues for yet another game, which there is a great chance of, don’t be surprised if Schutt takes on the lead as RCB’s best bowler against GG.
Our Prediction
Favorites to win: Royal Challengers Bangalore
In the two matches played till now, Gujarat have been lacking in both bowling and batting. After they were dealt two huge blows in the form of Beth Mooney and Deandra Dottin getting ruled out, they were completely routed in the first match. Harleen Deol’s batting and Kim Garth’s bowling gave them a fighting chance in the second match, but with other teammates lacking, Gujarat are still winless in WPL 2023. On the other hand, RCB have failed to pick wickets since the start of this season. They have picked only three wickets in the last two games, all wickets taken by spinners.
Royal Challengers Bangalore to win @ 1.675 (Melbet)
