SPR vs CR Betting Tips
Josh Brown to score under 19.5 runs
Josh Brown hasn’t been in the best of form this year and has an average of just over 15 runs in 5 innings. He has scored less than 19 runs in four of his five innings, including three ducks. We are expecting another poor outing.
Highest opening partnership - Chitwan Rhinos
While the Sudurpaschim Royals have a strong batting line-up, they have struggled with their opening pair. The team has lost the first wicket with 0 runs on the board in 3 of the 5 matches played, and we reckon they won’t be able to get a good start in this match as well.

SR vs CR Team Previews
Sudurpaschim Royals
The Sudurpaschim Royals have been clinical throughout the season, winning all five matches played so far and are currently placed at the top of the table. A win here will take them through to the playoffs.
Binod Bhandari is the team’s leading run-scorer for the Royals with 165 runs. He will continue to open the batting alongside Josh Brown. The team has two strong batsmen in the middle order in the form of Ishan Pandey and Chris Lynn, while the all-rounders Dipendra Singh Airee, Aarif Sheikh, and Harmeet Singh add depth to the Sudurpaschim Royals’ batting.
Harmeet Singh has also been brilliant with the ball, picking up 9 wickets. He will continue leading the spin department and will be supported by Dipendra Singh. The seam department is pretty strong as well, with Scott Kuggeleijn, Abinash Bohara, and Hemant Dhami picking up 25 wickets between them.
Sudurpaschim Royals Expected Playing 11
Binod Bhandari (WK), Josh Brown, Chris Lynn, Aarif Sheikh, Harmeet Singh, Dipendra Singh Airee (C), Ishan Pandey, Milan Bohara, Scott Kuggeleijn, Hemant Dhami, Abinash Bohara

Chitwan Rhinos
The Chitwan Rhinos have been rather inconsistent this season, managing to win only two of the five matches played so far. They are currently placed fifth on the points table and will be desperate to turn things around.
The Chitwan Rhinos’ batting hasn’t been the best. They have tried quite a few combinations at the top of the order throughout the season and finally managed to find the right pair in the previous game. Dawid Malan and Arjun Saud gave Chitwan a solid start, scoring individual half-centuries and putting up 112 runs for the first wicket.
They will look to do the same in this match. Ravi Bopara is another key batsman for the team as he is the leading run-scorer for the team. However, more will be expected from the likes of Saif Zaib, Dev Khanal, and Kushal Malla. Chitwan’s bowling has proved to be a weak link in the team’s journey. Sohail Tanvir is the team’s leading wicket-taker with 8 wickets.
However, he will need better support from Kamal Singh, Saugat Dhakal, and Amar Routela. The spin department also looks a bit weak, as barring Ranjit Kumar, none of the slower bowlers have made an impact.
Chitwan Rhinos Expected Playing 11
Dawid Malan, Arjun Saud (WK), Ravi Bopara, Kushal Malla (C), Saif Zaib, Amar Routela, Saugat Dhakal, Sohail Tanvir, Ranjit Kumar, Kamal Singh, Dev Khanal
SR vs CR Toss Prediction
5 of the last 6 matches played here were won while chasing, and we therefore feel that the team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
We are expecting a good batting surface for this match. The average first-inning score in the last couple of games is around 190. The seamers will get some help with the new ball, and the batsmen need to be careful during the Powerplay. However, once the batsmen settle down, playing shots will be easy.
The spinners will have to be careful with their line and length. The weather will remain clear with temperatures under 18 degrees.
SR vs CR: Who Will Win?
We are backing the Sudurpaschim Royals to win this match. They have been the best team in all departments, and we expect them to continue playing well. On the other hand, the Chitwan Rhinos haven’t been in the best of form and are likely to find it difficult to defeat such a tough opponent.
Bet on Sudurpaschim Royals to win.
