HUR vs STA: Dream11 Prediction
Wicketkeepers: Wade is in a different league of form, and it is a crime to leave an Aussie batter when his confidence is sky-high.
Batters: Cartwright is on his way to a dream season. Jewel hasn’t done well in the last two games, and he is expected to do well in this one. Meanwhile, Rogers is having a decent outing so far.
All-Rounders: Wasim, Maxwell, Jordan, and Webster — all four superstars are capable of pulling off the game single-handedly.
Bowlers: With the conditions favouring fast bowling, we will go with the prime pacers, Haris Rauf and Nathan Ellis. Also, the hero of the last game, Mir, can’t be missed.
