IND vs SL Dream11 Prediction: Top Captaincy Picks
-
Suryakumar Yadav: Suryakumar Yadav was the best batter in T20 cricket last year. He’s India’s best batter in the shortest format. He handles all kinds of bowling quite well and plays all around the park. SKY can win matches single-handedly once he gets going. He will be the best captaincy pick.
-
Hardik Pandya: Hardik Pandya will bat in the middle order and will bowl a few overs as well. He’s amongst the best all-rounders in T20 cricket and is a proven match-winner. Hardik will be an ideal captaincy option for your fantasy teams.
-
Arshdeep Singh: Arshdeep Singh has been in exceptional form lately. He’s become India’s lead bowler in T20Is. He can swing the new ball both ways and is equally good in the death overs as well. Arshdeep will get some movement with the new ball and he can pick a few wickets in this game which makes him an excellent captaincy choice.
IND vs SL Dream11 Prediction: Top Differential Picks
-
Ruturaj Gaikwad: Ruturaj Gaikwad has been piling up runs for fun in the domestic circuit. He has been in great touch with the bat and will look to replicate that in international cricket. He is known for scoring big when on song. Gaikwad will be an excellent differential pick.
-
Dasun Shanaka: Dasun Shanaka is an important player for his side. He will bat in the middle order and may bowl an over or two. He is a good all-rounder and will fetch points from both batting and bowling. Shanaka will be a top differential pick.
-
Yuzvendra Chahal: Yuzvendra Chahal is a genuine wicket-taker. He will be India’s lead spinner in this match. This Sri Lankan batting unit struggles against leg spin and Chahal can pick up a few wickets. He will be a great differential pick.
IND vs SL Dream11 Prediction: Players to Avoid
Chamika Karunaratne: Chamika Karunaratne will bat at number 8 and is not in great form with the ball. His overs can be cut if he goes for runs initially. He can be avoided in your fantasy teams.
