Hi, hello, and welcome back to ‘Khelo Dimag Se’ (Play with mind) presented to you by Dream11.
Today, we are going to see the fantasy preview for the match between Delhi Capitals and SRH.This is an interestingly placed battle. The qualification for play-offs is definitely heating up. Of course, nothing new here.All teams will fight really hard for those two crucial points towards the business end. Nothing beats that feeling be it for fans, players, or franchise owners themselves.
So, today’s game is like that. SRH, after a terrific start, has lost two games. Back-to-back losses are very common in IPL.But how can you come back from that and string those wins together is only crucial. Delhi also didn’t have a few crucial players who weren’t available for them.Then they had a COVID break as well. They lost a few players due to COVID. Then they won a few and lost a few. But they are a very powerful unit.This game will be played in Brabourne stadium. In this season, Brabourne has generally had placid batting conditions.
Par score has been 203 batting first, guys. Can you believe it? In fact, Delhi Capitals did bowl Punjab Kings out cheaply in one of the games.But except that game, all the other games have been high-scoring. And RCB scored 170-odd in one of the games.All the other games have been more than 200 only, guys. In fact, one of the games was chased down between CSK and LSG.
We will see how many percentages of people have picked certain players ahead of today’s match.We have only a few keeper options today, guys. We have only Rishabh Pant and Nicholas Pooran. Because KS Bharat is not even in contention to play for Delhi Capitals.
Mitchell Marsh is only playing at number 3. And if not for number 3, he cannot play in any other spot.So, he has not played for them this season. Nicholas Pooran has been picked by 60% of people. Because he played a blitzkrieg knock against CSK.
Obviously, he had two-three chances but 60% of people have picked him. 90% of people have picked Rishabh Pant.Obviously, he comes with a bit of a reputation. So, none of them would wanna drop him. And obviously, he is a matchwinner.
Next up: The batsmen section. David Warner has been picked by 86% of people. We all know that he is a consistent run-getter.
Abhishek Sharma has been a run bank opening for SRH this year. He has been by 80% of people.
Prithvi Shaw. I feel this game will be a tossup between Prithvi Shaw and Abhishek Sharma when it comes to the fantasy team.Prithvi Shaw is a runaway match-winner, guys. He gives impact performances. But he has been picked by only 62% of people.
Rahul Tripathi has been picked by 65% of people. Kane Williamson: 54% of people. Rovman Powell played well against LSG and he has been picked by 28% of people.Mitchell Marsh has been picked by 28% too. Picking batsmen won’t be easy ahead of this match.
Mitchell Marsh is listed in the batsmen section since he is not bowling this season. Aiden Markram: He has been playing exceptionally well in the last few games and he has scored fantasy points.He has scored over 450 points and so, 82% of people have picked him. Axar Patel has been picked by 68% of people.
Only 9% of people have picked Washington Sundar. He has picked only 200 points this season and we don’t know whether he will be available for this match.Lalit Yadav has been picked by 27% of people. Still, not a very popular pick. Kuldeep Yadav has been in the running for the purple cap.
80% of people have picked him. T Natarajan has been picked by 87% of people.
Umran Malik, the tearaway quick is winning the Swiggy Instamart award almost every game.82% of people have picked him. Shardul Thakur has been picked by 48% of people. Mustafizur Rahman has been picked by only 24% of people.
Wait and watch to know how my team is going to look like.I will let you guys know on what basis I have picked my team.I have gone with 5 batsmen, 2 wicket-keepers, 1 all-rounder, and 3 bowlers. Kane Williamson is a notable omission from my side.
I really wanted to pick him. Since the game is taking place in Brabourne Stadium, he might come back to form.Especially against this Delhi attack, if he sees off the initial period, he might play their spinners really well.
But he is under the 9 credentials category. So, I thought about it and decided to not pick him.But I have gone for an interesting choice as my differentiator for the day and I have an interesting omission as well. I will let you guys know the reason for that as well.
My 2 wicket-keepers are Nicholas Pooran and Rishabh Pant. Many people will pick both of them. 60% of people have picked Nicholas Pooran.More of them will pick him up before the start of play. So, I have picked both of them as my keepers.
David Warner, Rahul Tripathi, Prithvi Shaw, and Abhishek Sharma are my batters. My captain and vice-captain are also batsmen only.David Warner is my captain and Rahul Tripathi is my vice-captain.
I have a feeling that Rahul Tripathi will play both Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel exceptionally well and set the base. 5th batsman will be Mitchell Marsh. I will explain the reasoning behind picking him as my 5th batsman.I don’t know if Washington Sundar will be playing this game and even if he plays, they are a side with just one spinner.
If Washi is unavailable, they might play J Suchith. And predominantly, a seam-based attack.
So, given the game is at Brabourne, Mitchell Marsh might have a decent game in my opinion.He hasn’t bowled in this tournament and I just hope he bowls this game and so, I have picked him as my differentiator. He was available for just 8.5 credentials and so, I have picked him.
My only all-rounder is Aiden Markram. His name is pronounced as Eden even though it is spelled as Aiden.I had my doubts on whether to make him my vice-captain or to go with Kuldeep Yadav.But then decided to go with a batsman in Rahul Tripathi since batsmen will be in full flow this game.
David Warner is a very popular captaincy pick. I have also picked Kuldeep Yadav. He has been picked by most people and so, I don’t want to leave him.The majority of the people have also picked Natarajan and so, I didn’t want to leave him either.
Due to the unavailability of credits and since the last game was played in Pune, I have decided to give a break to Umran Malik.You can pick him since he is a safe pick. Since I wanted to go with 5 batsmen theory due to Brabourne Stadium, I have gone with Shardul Thakur as my third bowler.I have picked all the top-three batters of Delhi. Of course, I have picked Rishabh Pant as well.
If there is a collapse, Shardul Thakur might give me some runs with the bat as well. And he might pick a few wickets at the death as well.
So, I am definitely backing Shardul Thakur to come good this game.So, this is my XI.This is my Dream 11 fantasy team. Please think about my choices, and game conditions, but still, go with your instinct. All the very best for the game. Once again, I will just repeat the XI.
5 batters: David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Rahul Tripathi, Prithvi Shaw, and Abhishek Sharma.Captain: David Warner, vice-captain: Rahul Tripathi.All-rounder: Aiden Markram.2 keepers: Rishabh Pant and Nicholas Pooran.Bowlers: Kuldeep Yadav, Shardul Thakur, and T Natarajan.This is my team. So, all the very best for your fantasy game today, thank you.
