All Cricket Tips w/c 20th September

KKR v RCB
In Abu Dhabi this evening on a new wicket. Probably wise to go with the quicks until we get a little wear and tear on the pitch.

Jamieson @ 7/2

Strange match yesterday. Abject batting display from RCB and then followed that with a bowling show of how to miss your line and length consistently. So poor in fact that we are no wiser re the wicket at Abu Dhabi.

PK v RR
Back in Dubai today where the seamers took all the wickets in CSK v MI. Both sides started poorly but CSK finished better racking up 7 sixes in the process. Fancy Lewis, Samson and Livingstone capable of matching this. Two seamer death bowlers and an evens stab

No joy on the bowlers yet but will have another shot. Still in Dubai so going seamers. 10 Sixes in CSK v MI at this ground and 15 last night.

Total match sixes over 10.5 @ 9/10

Having less joy then a credit card at a strip show - 0 from 6 on the bowlers and yesterdays odds-on down the tubes after the rubbish score from SRH.

MI v KKR
Back at Abu Dhabi today where RCB showed us nothing but KKR did chased down the 93 in 10 overs. Tempted by overs on that 160.5 at 9/10 but will try and swerve it. Leaning towards spinners today.

Four straight losses and my dog has warned me - One more kick and you lose a limb. Normal markets poor so we change direction. Today's stake going

IPL OUTRIGHT
KKR started poorly struggling in the batting department but then most of their matches were in Chennai where the pitch was better suited to vegetable growing then cricket. They have won both comfortably in the UAE and currently lie 4th - played one more match but have the 3rd best NRR. RCB above them won their first four matches but have lost three of the last four and they just don't look the part. Top four go to play offs and I think KKR make it.

To Win Outright
KKR @ 17/2

RCB vs CSK

Based purely on the fact that it is played at Sharjah, a smaller pitch, famous for big scores and lots of sixes.

Total Match Sixes Over 15.5 @1.83 sportsbet (Bet365 has this as over 17.5)
First Over Runs Over 5.5 @1.80 bet365
First Innings Score Over 179.5 @1.90, bet365

IPL
KKR have won their first two matches since the restart comfortably in Abu Dhabi. Today CSK fly in for the early match.
MI have lost both their matches since the restart and RCB are on a 1 from 5 run. Taking the shorter odds which makes stake cover easy if I land the KKR match.

Double
KKR and MI @ 26/10

Second feed at The Vanns (Cycling takes priority) coming from UAE so two death bowlers
