WAF vs TSKS Team Previews
Washington Freedom
Washington Freedom was off to a perfect start as they defeated the incumbent champions in a rain-curtailed match. The major shuffle that occurred in the squad prior to this season seems to have had a positive impact on the performance of the team.
Steve Smith was in brilliant form with the bat as he scored 45 runs from just 28 deliveries to keep the team ahead of the DLS curve. Smith, along with Travis Head, Glenn Maxwell, and Andries Gous makes up for a strong top order.
While there are no big names in the middle order, there is plenty of depth in the batting thanks to the presence of Marco Jansen and Akeal Hosein. The pace attack is pretty sorted with Saurabh Netravalkar and Jason Dill likely to begin the proceedings with the new ball.
The duo picked up 3 wickets each in the last match. Maxwell and Akeal Hosein will lead the spin attack.
Washington Freedom Playing 11
Travis Head, Steven Smith, Andries Gous, Glenn Maxwell, Obus Pienaar, Mukhtar Ahmed, Marco Jansen, Justin Dill, Akeal Hosein, Lockie Ferguson, Saurabh Netravalkar.
Texas Super Kings
The Texas Super Kings will be disappointed with the way they performed in their opening fixture as they were defeated quite easily by the Los Angeles Knight Riders.
Barring Devon Conway, none of the batsmen were able to get going on Friday night. Much will depend on how his opening partner, Faf du Plessis performs here. He has been one of the best batsmen in the IPL and will hope to get his team off to a flying start.
While the Super Kings have some domestic stars like Joshua Tromp and Milind Kumar playing for them, they lack an international performer except for Marcus Stoinis. Stoinis can be a handy bowler as well and will join Aaron Hardie, Zia Ul-Haq, Naveen Ul-Haq, and Gerald Coetzee in the pace department.
The spin attack is pretty thin though.

Pitch and Conditions
The pitch at Morrisville isn’t the easiest to bat on, especially during the first half. There is plenty of help on offer, especially for the seamers, as the new ball does swing around. As there was some drizzling here last night, there will be some moisture on the surface, allowing the ball to skid.
A score of between 155-160 is a par score on this ground. The weather is likely to remain cloudy and there might be some drizzling.
WAF vs TSKS Betting Tips
Washington Freedom was in good form, especially with the ball in the last match. While their new-look batting line-up is still untested, we expect them to play well and go on to win this match.
Bet on Washington Freedom to win this match.
Bonus Cricket Bets
Washington will open its batting with Travis Head and Steve Smith. While Smith looked fluent in his last outing, Travis Head is known for his explosive batting, especially in the shortest format. On the other hand, du Plessis has looked rusty in his past few matches.
Netravalkar has bowled pretty well since the start of the T20 World Cup. He has picked up at least 2 wickets in 4 of his last 6 matches, and with the pitch here helping the seamers, he has a good chance of bowling yet another good spell.
