Today, we have a doubleheader and the first match will be between Kolkata Knight Riders and Kings XI Punjab. The latter needs to win this match to survive in the tournament. Meanwhile, we bring you a set of players to choose in your Dream11 fantasy league.
Star Players:
Shubman Gill:
Gill is in good form and giving nice starts to KKR. All he needs to do is to anchor an innings and play a big knock. He will be a good pick in your Dream11 fantasy team.
KL Rahul:
Rahul is currently the leading run-scorers of this tournament. Though he is playing well, his team is losing games. To make his team win this match, Rahul has to play a responsible knock.
Mayank Agarwal:
Along with Rahul, Mayank made some great partnerships in this edition. If he gets going in this match, you will have many points in your kitty for sure.
Sunil Narine:
Narine has done well for KKR in their last match against CSK. On this spin-friendly pitch, we expect him to take some crucial wickets in this game as well.
Dark Horses:
Nicholas Pooran:
Pooran played a sensational knock against SRH in Punjab’s last game. However, he failed to take his team Punjab to the victory shores. We can expect another big innings from him.
Mohammed Shami:
Of late, Shami has been unable to pick up many wickets. But he is the striking bowler for KXIP. If he gets a wicket or two, you will have many fantasy points in your Dream11 team.
Shivam Mavi:
The young pacer Shivam Mavi is doing well for KKR. He is lethal and also has wicket-taking abilities. You can also get him for fewer credits. Go for him.
Andre Russell:
More than batting, Russell is doing well with the ball in this season of IPL. Any which ways, he will be a definite pick for many Dream11 fantasy league players for his all-round abilities.
Uncapped Gems:
Rahul Tripathi:
In the last match against CSK, this KKR opener scored an unbeaten half-century and played a major role in his team’s victory. Pick him up without any second thoughts.
Ravi Bishnoi:
Ravi Bishnoi is the front-line spinner of Punjab. You give him the ball in any over and he will pick up a wicket for you. Thus, he is a must inclusion in your Dream11 fantasy team.
Here are the probable XI of both the teams:
Kings XI Punjab: KL Rahul, Mayank Agarwal, PS Singh, Nicholas Pooran, Glenn Maxwell/Chris Gayle, Mandeep Singh, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Ravi Bishnoi, Sheldon Cottrell, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh
Kolkata Knight Riders: Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi, Nitish Rana, Dinesh Karthik, Eoin Morgan, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Pat Cummins, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Shivam Mavi, Varun Chakravarthy
