KOL vs DC IPL Cricket Betting Tips and Live Score: Qualifier 2, Kolkata Knight Riders vs Delhi Capitals

KOL vs DC IPL Prediction: Kolkata Knight Riders are set to lock horns against Delhi Capitals in Qualifier 2 of the Indian Premier League. The winner will meet Chennai Super Kings in the summit clash. KKR won the eliminator against RCB two nights back. Sunil Narine was the player of the Match for his all-round effort. He took four wickets and changed the game with 18 off his first three deliveries.

DC on the other hand fell short against CSK. Tom Curran failed to defend 13 in the last over against MS Dhoni. However, they did put on a good show with the bat. We have a great game on our hands as the most consistent side this year meets the resurgent KKR who have been terrific in the UAE leg.

Win Prediction

DC – 50%
KOL – 50%

Kolkata Knight Riders have played most of their UAE leg games in Sharjah and with success. Their spin bowlers are dangerous on this wicket. They have three world-class spinners in their ranks who can stifle the DC batsmen. DC, on the other hand, have a fine pace bowling attack. All their batsmen have been amongst the runs and look in fine touch. The team who play the middle overs well will have the upper hand. We are tipping KKR to win this match.

Betting Odds:

Bet365: KOL: 1.80; DC: 2.00
