Du Plessis 3/1 for top bat

"Originals have won their last two but both came against bottom-feeders Brave and Fire. And their bowling has been consistently pricey"

Team news

Superchargers have been boosted by the return of Harry Brook from England duty. They have finally decided to give David Wiese a proper run and he won man of the match against Phoenix. He should move up a spot.

Possible XI: DU Plessis, Lyth, Brook, Willey, Wiese, Simpson, Bravo, Raine, Rashid, Miles

Originals have added Ireland pacer Josh Little as replacement for Sean Abbott, who is on Australia duty. Abbott's economy was 11.16 so he's hardly a big miss.

Possible XI: Buttler, Salt, Madsen, Russell, Stubbs, Evans, Walter, Hartley, Little, Parkinson, Stanley

Pitch report

There have been first-dig scores of 152 and 143 at Leeds. It's a bit of disappointing return for runs backers as the surface is much better. One would have expected scores of at least in the 160s. We might get 2.206/5 of more than 160. Bet the runs here.

How to play

Superchargers are 2.265/4 and that looks a bet with confidence high after a great result against Phoenix. Originals have won their last two but both came against bottom-feeders Brave and Fire. And their bowling has been consistently pricey. Bet the market here

Tops value

Buttler and Faf Du Plessis are boosted to 13/5 and 3/1 respectively for top Originals and Superchargers bat. Wiese remains value at 18s for the latter. In-form Adam Lyth is 3/1. Bet the Sportsbook markets here.
