GHG vs FPC Match Prediction & Betting Tips - Jun 08, 2020
The only match of the Finnish T20 League on the 8th of June 2020 is going to be the one between Gym Helsinki Gymkhana (GHG) and the Finnish Pakistani Club (FPC). GHG has played one match in the tournament already while this is going to be the first match for FPC.
FPC comes into this tournament with a lot of expectations that it could be one of the teams fighting for a playoff spot. Lets take a look at the stats and see whether this adds up.
GHG vs FPC Finnish T20 League 2020 is going to be played at the Kerava National Cricket Stadium, Kerava on the 8th of June 2020.
GHG vs FPC Team Previews
GYM Helsinki Gymkhana
GHG was unable to chase down 130 in the previous match it played and eventually ended up on 104. The target in front of GHG was just about par for the surface and a loss by 25 runs is a big one in T20 cricket.
The batting was disappointing in that match and that is something we are worried about in this encounter as well. Pankaj Saharan top-scored with 41 from 43 balls but there was nothing from any of the other leading batsmen.
Shahid Gondal and Nouman Raza were supposed to be the backbone of the side’s batting and a lot more will be needed from them in these upcoming matches.
A promotion for someone like SImranjeet Brar or Umair Akhtar could be on the cards.
Atti Rehman picked up three wickets in his four overs in the first match and is going to be the leading bowler for GHG in this match as well. A total of seven bowlers were used in the previous match, an indication of the number of options available as well as the lack of impact that the leading bowlers had.
A lot of improvement will be needed from GHG in both aspects of the game.

FPC Finnish Pakistani Club
FPC is not one of the leading cricket clubs in the Finnish Premier League T20 but it does have some very good players to watch out for. Among the batsmen, we think the wicketkeeper-batsman Muhammad Aqeel is someone to watch out for.
He is an aggressive player that is pretty adept at finding the vacant spaces behind the wicket. Waseem Qureshi and Khaild Saeed are also two more batsmen that will need to be among the runs if FPC has to win consistently.
Perhaps the best player of the side is Bilal Khan. He is a proper all-rounder that can score runs when needed and is going to bowl his four overs in almost every match. His form is going to dictate to a large extent how FPC go in this tournament.
Nesarulhaq Malekzaei and Adil Khan are going to be leading the bowling attack. There is enough talent in this attack to be able to stop GHG from scoring freely.

GHG vs FPC Toss Prediction
The team that wins the toss is going to want to bat first. Teams seem to be doing well setting the score rather than chasing at this venue so this trend will continue.

Pitch and Conditions
There is a bit of bit of light rain expected on match day which means we could have DLS calculations coming into play once more. The pitch has been favoring the bowlers so far and that is not going to change.
There are a number of match that are played on this same surface day after day which will make it even slower.
A score of around 125-130 should be seen as par.
GHG vs FPC Betting Tips
We think FPC has a good chance of starting with a win. They have a very good bowling attack and some pretty decent batsmen in there as well. What we have seen from GHG so far has not filled us with much confidence either.
Bet on FPC to win.
