Rangpur Riders vs Rajshahi Kings Prediction

Sabbir Rahman and Mominul Haque have been their best batsmen at the top of the order while skipper Darren Sammy is a key member in the middle order. Sammy scored an unbeaten 44 in the reverse fixture against the Riders and will be coming off a match-winning unbeaten innings of 71 in the last match. We therefore predict him to score the most runs for the Kings.

They have done okay with the ball so far but will need to come up with a better effort against the Riders. Abul Hasan has been the pick of their bowlers this year with nine wickets from as many matches while Nazmul Islam who took a couple of wickets against the Riders will be their go-to spinner.

Riders vs Kings Betting Odds

It has been a turnaround of fortunes for the Rajshashi Kings and three consecutive victories have made them short favorites to win this match at 1.80 with bet365 and 1.92 with 1xbet. Rangpur Riders have looked a bit off-color in their last two matches. They are outsiders at 2.00 and 2.06 respectively.

Riders vs Kings Prediction

The two teams have squared-off three times in the past with Rajshahi Kings emerging winners on two occasions. So they have a slight upper hand when it comes to head-to-head stats. The momentum too is going to be on their side as they will be coming into this match on the back of three successive wins. Rangpur Riders, on the other hand, have faced defeats in their previous two games which includes a defeat at the hands of the Kings themselves. So they could be a little short on confidence. 

However, they do have the resources in Mohammad Shahzad and Shahid Afridi to get them back on the winning track. Plus, if they are able to exploit the relatively weak bowling attack of the Kings, the Riders are surely going to fancy their chances.
