Both the sides are equal on paper, however, considering a better batting line-up of Indore Knights makes them favorites ahead of this game.
Suresh Raina: Suresh Raina will definitely start as the top captaincy pick for this match. The veteran batter scored a brilliant 90 off 45 in the first game against Nagpur Ninjas. He bats at three and will be looking to continue his form in this game as well.
Phil Mustard: Phil Mustard scored a brilliant half century in the first match. Indore’s top order batter will be another great captaincy choice, considering the kind of aggressive approach Mustard have on this type of pitches. It is advisable to keep him as another captaincy choice from the Knights’ unit.
Bhanu Seth: Bhanu Seth will be another top captaincy pick for this match. He scored a brilliant century in the first match against Guwahati. He remained unbeaten at 130 off 48 balls, including 14 sixes and 9 fours, helping Chandigarh to chase the target in less than 13 overs.
Dilshan Munaweera: Munaweera could not make much of an impact with both the ball in the first match against Nagpur. However, he is expected to continue at the top of the order and is advisable to be picked as one of the differential picks for this game. His all-round abilities makes him one of the players to watch out for.
Amit Sanan: Amit Sanan will be another great differential pick for this match. The left arm pacer has been selected only by 14% of the teams as of writing this. He took only one wicket in the first match but can make a huge difference to your points tally on his day.
Deepak Sharma: Deepak Sharma doesn’t bowl and bats way down the order. It is advisable to avoid picking him in your XI ahead of this match.
