Dream11 IPL 2020 kicked off in style last night with the opening game between Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians. Tonight, Kings XI Punjab will be facing Delhi Capitals in the second match. While Delhi settled with its core in the auctions, Punjab made a few significant changes in their team. There is a lot of talent to choose from, for your Dream11 fantasy teams. Here are some of our suggestions that you can opt according to the given credits.
Star Players:
Lokesh Rahul:
Rahul is in red-hot form in all formats of cricket from the last couple of years. This year, he will be captaining Punjab for the first time. Thus, there is an extra responsibility on him. So, we can expect responsible and explosive innings from this star opener.
Rishab Pant:
This young sensation needs no introduction. We all know the anchor role he plays for Delhi in the middle-order. Mostly, Pant can come after half-innings and with his quick striking rate, he can give you more points.
Shreyas Iyer:
This Delhi Capitals skipper comes in first down for his team. Iyer is known for his sensible play. If he is able to remain in the crease for more than 15 overs, you can expect him to deliver something big for sure.
Glenn Maxwell:
The Australian all-rounder scored a smashing century against England just a few days back. His stupendous form can come in handy for Punjab. Moreover, Maxwell has a deadly record in UAE when the IPL was held here back in 2014.
Dark Horses:
Mujeeb-ur-Rahman:
Given the fact that the UAE pitches are spin-friendly, expect this Afghanistan bowler to shine big time. Mujeeb not only has wicket-taking skills but is also a very economical bowler. A truly underrated cricketer.
Ravichandran Ashwin:
Ashwin just got transferred from Punjab to Delhi. He knows the strengths and weaknesses of many Punjab players and it can be an advantage for him.
Mayank Agarwal:
The top-order Punjab batsman comes for a reasonable price. He calm and settled performance can give you a reasonable score in the tally.
Kagiso Rabada:
The South-African quickie is pretty tough to face in the first six overs. As there is a lot of grass in the Dubai stadium, we can expect some early wickets from him.
Uncapped Gems:
Ravi Bishnoi:
The Jodhpur-lad is a promising young leg spinner. He is one of the talents to watch out for in the tournament. Bishnoi was the highest wicket-taker in the U-19 Cricket World Cup which was held earlier this year. He took 17 wickets in the tournament. You will get Bishnoi for lesser credits and you can rely on him for sure.
Krishnappa Gowtham:
Gowtham made a mark by performing well for Rajasthan in the earlier seasons. This time, he got shifted to the Punjab den. He is a good spinner and a big hitter of the ball. If you have fewer credits, you can pick him in your Dream11 team.
Here are the probable XI of both the teams
Kings XI Punjab: Lokesh Rahul, Mayank Agarwal, Nicholas Pooran, Glenn Maxwell, Sarfaraz Khan, Mandeep Singh, Krishnappa Gowtham, Sheldon Cortell, Ravi Bishnoi, Mujeeb-ur-Rahman, Mohammed Shami
Delhi Capitals: Prithvi Shaw, Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer, Shimron Hetmyer, Rishab Pant, Alex Carey, Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Sandeep Lamichhane/Anrich Nortje, Ishant Sharma
