IPL Betting - Rajasthan Looking for ‘Royal’ Performance

Kings XI Punjab (-110) v Kolkata Knight Riders (-130)

Both sides suffered heavy defeats in their opening fixtures, but will back the talent they have in their ranks to make an immediate return to winning ways. Kings XI played a rain reduced game against Delhi Daredevils but saw Virender Sehwag destroy their attack in just six overs as they crashed to a ten wicket defeat.

Kings XI fared little better as RP Singh’s 4-22 saw them fall to 101 all out against Deccan Chargers and Herschelle Gibbs’ rapid fire 43 eased the Chargers home.
Both sides possess talent in abundance though, and an even contest is predicted as both sides will look to avoid falling to 0-2, but Kings XI have been installed as slight -110 favourites to take victory.

Rajasthan Royals (+120) v Mumbai Indians (-160)

Rajasthan will be looking to bounce back from their crushing opening defeat at the hands of Bangalore Royal Challengers as they take on Mumbai Indians. Rajasthan, under the leadership of Shane Warne were bowled out for just 57 in their opening game and are +120 to take the win in this game against a Mumbai side who eked out an impressive win in the first fixture, defeating the Chennai Super Kings largely thanks to an unbeaten 59 from Sachin Tendulkar and 3-15 from Lasith Malinga.

Warne has a huge job on his hands to try and get some momentum going as they look to the repeat as Champions, but their lengthening IPL betting odds of +1000 suggest he has a big job on his hands.
