This weekend, we have an interesting match ahead between Kolkata Knight Riders and the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Both teams have played a match each and lost them. They will be looking forward to opening their points tally with this game. There are a lot of big names in these teams. You might be pretty confused about choosing the right players for your Dream11 fantasy teams. Here we bring a list of players who can be the best choices in your teams.
Star Players:
David Warner:
Warner had an unfortunate dismissal in the last game. But he looked in good touch. As a captain, he has the responsibility of giving his team the first victory. Thus, Warner may come out well this time.
Jonny Bairstow:
Jonny Bairstow made a half-century in the first game of SRH. As his team depends heavily on the top-order, we can expect him to play yet another classy innings this time as well.
Sunil Narine:
Though Mumbai scored 195 against KKR in the first game, Narine gave away only 22 runs in his four overs. That proves that he hasn’t lost his touch has a bowler. A must-pick in your Dream11 fantasy league team.
Rashid Khan:
Narine is the trump card of KKR and Rashid is the trump card of SRH. Though he had an off-day in the first game, we can expect Rashid to pick some wickets in this game.
Dark Horses:
Shubman Gill:
A highly talented youngster who can be a star in the future. Gill didn’t score well in the first game. But as he is an opener, he may do well in the early overs of KKR.
Pat Cummins:
Cummins had a nightmare in the last game. But he is one of the best bowlers in the world right now and we cannot underestimate his abilities. Pick him on your Dream11 side and he may surprise you this time.
Manish Pandey:
Pandey played a sensible knock in the first match of SRH. He looked in good touch and thus, we predict that he will put on a good show in this game as well.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar:
Though Bhuvi didn’t get any wickets in the last game, he was very economical. If there is a swing on the pitch, Bhuvi can take some early wickets and give you points.
Uncapped Gems:
Shivam Mavi:
Mavi impressed with his bowling in KKR’s first match. He picked up two wickets against Mumbai. He is a frontline pacer of KKR and his team will bank on him in this game as well.
Abhishek Sharma:
A young all-rounder who can bowl 2-3 overs and can also bat well in the middle overs. All he needs is the right match to showcase his skills. Go for him.
