Victoria Betting Analysis
Victoria have been the stand out team over the course of the competition and that was reflected in the final league phase standings, with the Australian state top of the table and the only ones with three wins to their name. They boast two players among the top three highest run-scorers and the top wicket-taker in Callum Stow.
But one player in particular, who warrants attention from a betting perspective for his power hitting is Sanjay Krishnamurthi. Opening the batting, Krishnamurthi has smashed eight 6s in what have been tough conditions for batters throughout the tournament. That’s three 6s more than the second highest maximum hitter. Look to try and capitalise on Krishnamurthi’s brute force with the willow by backing him to strike the most match 6s.
Rangpur Riders Betting Analysis
Rangpur Riders owe their remarkable rival to what has been a fantastic collective effort from the entire team, with different players stepping up at crucial times with bat and ball. This makes it difficult for bettors to focus on one individual player.
However, it would be remiss not to mention Soumya Sarkar as the only Rangpur batter to score over 100 runs across the league stage. Sarkar has performed well for his side and batting in the powerplay with the field up could work in his favour, so consider backing the opener to record 20+ runs in the final.
Victoria vs Rangpur Riders Expert Prediction
Rangpur Riders can’t be written off at this stage, not whilst they ride the crest of a wave which has led them into the final against all the odds. The reality though, is that Victoria have adapted better than any other team to the conditions and the rigours of such a short tournament, where every game has been pivotal.
Victoria boasts the more consistent performers with bat and ball, not to mention they have already gotten the better of Rangpur Riders once, beating the BPL side by 10 runs in the league phase. Weighing all this up, Corey Anderson’s Victoria have to be backed over Rangpur to come away with the victory and a rare new title, adding to what is already a hugely illustrious trophy cabinet.
