IPL 2016: Gujarat Lions vs Royal Challengers Bangalore betting preview
Gujarat Lions will be out to bounce back from their first defeat of the season when they face the Royal Challengers Bangalore in Rajkot on 24 April.
Suresh Raina's side lost their 100% record after they were thrashed by 10 wickets by Sunrisers Hyderabad at home on 21 April. The hosts could only put up 135-8 in their 20 overs batting first, with David Warner and Shikhar Dhawan knocking off the target with 31 balls to spare.
Gujarat are priced at 11/10 by Betfair to return to winning ways against Bangalore.
Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers put on a mammoth second-wicket partnership of 155 to take RCB to 185-3 against the Rising Pune Supergiants in their last match. MS Dhoni's side were hampered by the loss of early wickets and Kevin Pietersen's calf injury to fall short by 13 runs in their chase. RCB are backed at 10/11 to continue their winning run.
Aaron Finch, the world's second best T20 batsman, is 17/8 to top score for Gujarat in the match, with his opening partner Brendon McCullum at 13/5. Raina is also 13/5 to top the run charts, while Dwayne Bravo is at 7/1.
Kohli is 15/8 to be the leading run scorer for the visiting team. De Villiers is at 11/5 and Chris Gayle is at 5/2.
