The 13th edition of Dream11 Indian Premier League is scheduled to take place in UAE from 19 September 2020 and all 8 teams are ready to compete in the prestigious tournament. Mumbai Indians is the most successful team in the competition as they won 4 IPL trophies over the years and they’re the title defending champions in this 2020 IPL season.

The other second most successful team of the competition is Chennai Super Kings who have won the IPL cup on three occasions. Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad have won Indian Premier League trophies as well. But now the question is who will win this year’s IPL?

There are several opinions from ex-cricketers and experts that once again either Chennai or Mumbai will be the champions of India’s cash-rich twenty20 league while some are favoring Sunrisers Hyderabad for winning the cup.

From the recent analysis and prediction from sporting websites, it is found that the Royal Challengers Bangalore are favorites to win the 2020 IPL edition. As per the analysis and trends of IPL champions done on the previous 12 seasons, RCB has an edge over on the other 7 sides to win the competition. If you bet on IPL and looking to play this time as well, you must go with Royal Challengers as per a report by betway.

As per the report, the Team that has most international cricketers and the average age of players in the squad is below 30, has the maximum chance of winning the Indian Premier League. And RCB has got tick to these marks as they have 18 international players in the roster and the average age is 29 years and 2 months.

Royal Challengers Bangalore has got some serious batting lineup once again this IPL 2020 season with skipper Virat Kohli, AB De Villiers, Aaron Finch, Parthiv Patel, all-rounders like Moeen Ali and Josh Philippe. Dale Steyn, Umesh Yadav, Yuzvender Chahal, Chris Morris, and Adam Zampa are the prime bowling options in the side for captain Kohli to utilize and win maiden IPL trophy.

KKR’s former captain and two-time IPL winning skipper Gautam Gambhir has said it would be a good opportunity for RCB bowlers to perform well this season as they’ll be playing in UAE where grounds are large as compared to Chinnaswamy where there is nothing for bowlers but to see batsmen hitting them all over the park.

“I still feel that RCB looks a little batting-heavy. But one thing that you will see a little different is that the bowlers will be happy because they will not have to play 7 matches at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. You will be playing in Dubai and Abu Dhabi which probably have bigger grounds, wickets are not as flat as Chinnaswamy. It is always difficult to judge the bowlers from Chinnaswamy’s point of view,” Gambhir said during the Starsports show.

RCB played three finals of the league in 2009, 2011, and 2016 years but never got the chance to win it. Every season, they’re favorite but never won it.
