Gulf Giants Betting Analysis

Gulf Giants bowler Blessing Muzarabani is currently the fourth highest wicket-taker over the course of this season’s ILT20 so far. The right-arm pacer boasts 14 wickets across eight games and if anyone can shut down this formidable MI Emirates batting order, it’s Muzarabani. With that in mind, back the Zimbabwean to take over 1.5 match wickets.

MI Emirates Betting Analysis

There’s one player that should immediate command focus from bettors when it comes to potential investment in this MI Emirates batting line-up and that’s Tom Banton. The Somerset star has piled up 369 runs in eight innings, including two centuries. He has finished as MI Emirates’ top batter in each of their last two matches and it well worth backing to make it three from three here.

Gulf Giants vs MI Emirates Expert Prediction

MI Emirates may be four places above Gulf Giants in the table, but have only registered two more points than their opponents due to the congested nature of this competition. But their batters are expected to outscore this Giants side, regardless of whether they are setting or chasing a target and backing MI Emirates to pick up the win is worth backing.
