• Bowlers from both sides are in top form. 

• Matheesha Pathirana will be a key bowler for CSK, especially in the death overs. 

• Noor Ahmad has been in top form in the middle overs for Gujarat.  

• Hardik Pandya has been average with the bat and he needs to regain his form.

Poor form alert (GT)

• Wriddhiman Saha has 2 ducks in the last 3 games. 

Poor form alert (CSK)

• Maheesh Theekshana has 2 wickets in the last 4 games.  

Risk-Reward Alert

• Wriddhiman Saha will be against Deepak Chahar and he has an average record against CSK. You can take the risk and drop him.

• CSK’s middle order is vulnerable to wrist spin which makes Noor Ahmad an appealing fantasy option. 

• Maheesh Theekshana will be an excellent differential pick.  

• Hardik Pandya has not bowled in the last few games. He may get trapped by the CSK spinners as well. You can drop him from most of your fantasy teams. Make him captain in 1-2 teams.

• Ajinkya Rahane will be a good option as well. It’s a quite risky move as he is a good choice only when he comes to bat in the power play. Pick him in 2-3 teams and make him Captain. 

• Drop all the bowlers from Hyderabad if Gujarat is bowling first. It’s a bit risky but it’s worth the risk and can be an excellent differential move. 

Probable GT Playing XI:

Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Shubman Gill, Hardik Pandya (c), David Miller, Abhinav Manohar, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad, Alzarri Joseph, Mohammed Shami, Mohit Sharma

Probable Impact Sub: Vijay Shankar

Probable CSK Playing XI:

Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Ajinkya Rahane, Shivam Dube, Moeen Ali, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (c & wk), Deepak Chahar, Tushar Deshpande, Maheesh Theekshana, Matheesha Pathirana

Probable Impact Sub: Ambati Rayud

Low to medium-risk small leagues 

• High risk to avoid players with high ownership (try to fit in most players with more than 60% ownership with not more than 2 differentials)

Best leagues for safe play

• Rs 36 - 10 spots (top 5 get 60)

• Rs 60 - 10 spots (top 5 get 100)

• Rs 119 - 10 spots (top 5 get 200)

• Rs 590 - 10 spots (top 5 get 1000)

RR vs RCB Dream11 Prediction: Base fantasy team safe + medium risk (irrespective of toss)

Spots left: 2

Highest ownerships from the outside base team: Saha, Miller and Shami  

Saha vs Miller

• David Miller is the better choice. He has a good record against CSK - 414 runs at an average of 41.4 and has struck at 139.9. Saha will face Deepak Chahar in the power play and there are chances of him getting dismissed early.

• Change 2 out of the 7 players with 70% ownership (in team 6 onwards)

• Pick one player who was brought in for this game

Choices for this game

• You can consider dropping Wriddhiman Saha.

• Noor Ahmad and Mohit Sharma will be the top differential picks. 

• Rashid Khan will be a tough match-up for Shivam Dube. You may take the risk and drop Dube. 

• Ajinkya Rahane will be a good punt pick.

• It’s worth the risk to select Gaikwad as Captain over Gill and Conway. 

Base team for T1-T5

Conway, Gill, Gaikwad, Dube, Jadeja, Pandya, Rashid, Chahar, Pathirana

Other picks in order: Mohammed Shami (if CSK bats 1st), Noor Ahmad, Mohit Sharma (if CSK bats 1st), Theekshana, Rahane, Vijay Shankar

One major differential pick: Vijay Shankar, Maheesh Theekshana, Moeen Ali, Noor Ahmad

GT vs CHE Dream11 Prediction: Who will win the battle between Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings?

Both teams are in excellent form and it’s very difficult to predict a winner between them. CSK will have their home advantage and they’ll look to spin a web with their spinners against the GT batters. Gujarat needs to bat better as they look a bit over-dependent on Shubman Gill.
