Top Captaincy Choices for SLK vs TKR Dream11 Match
-
Andre Russell: Andre Russell will be the best captaincy option for this match. Russell is the best all-rounder in T20 cricket and is capable of winning games from both batting and bowling. He is one of the most destructive batters in world cricket and hits sixes for fun. He can turn the game on its head if he bats for a few overs. Russell was in top form in the recently concluded Sixty tournament and will look to continue that in the CPL as well.
-
Sunil Narine: Sunil Narine is another perfect captaincy pick for your fantasy teams. Narine will open the innings and will bowl 4 overs as well. He is a champion player in the shortest format and a proven performer in T20 leagues around the globe. Narine was in superb form in the Hundred 2022. He can score quickly and can pick wickets in clusters. Narine will fetch points from both batting and bowling.
-
Roston Chase: Roston Chase has been in exceptional form in the last couple of seasons of the CPL. He was the highest run-scorer of CPL 2021 with 446 runs and also had a few wickets to his name as well. Chase will be the best player for the Kings and he will look to do well. He will bat at number 3 or 4 and will bowl 4 overs as well. Chase’s all-round attributes make him an ideal captaincy choice.
Budget Pick for SLK vs TKR Dream11 Match
- Tion Webster (8 Credits): Tion Webster will be the best budget pick for this game. He is expected to open the innings for TKR. Webster is a talented batter and has played a few good knocks for TKR in the past. He was in decent form in the Sixty tournament. He will look to score big in this match and start off his CPL with some runs under his belt.
Differential Picks for SLK vs TKR Dream11 Match
-
Mark Deyal: Mark Deyal will be an excellent budget pick for this match. He will bat in the top order for the St. Lucia Kings and will bowl a few overs of his off-spin. Deyal is an excellent all-rounder and has done well in the last couple of editions of the CPL. He bats aggressively, can pick wickets with the ball and is electric in the field as well. Overall, Deyal is a utility player and will be a must-pick in your fantasy teams.
-
Ravi Rampaul: Ravi Rampaul is another great differential pick for this match. Rampaul is very experienced and he’ll lead the pace unit of the Trinbago Knight Riders.
