Fantasy Picks
Captain: KL Rahul
KL’s form has been questioned. But we all know what he is capable of. He is looking for a start that will take his confidence high. It is not new; it has happened many times to him. It is expected that he will use this game to regain his confidence.
Vice-captain: A Singh
A Singh’s both the way swing bowling, along with the left-arm angle, makes him unplayable with the new ball. He will be a threat to Bangladesh.
Wicketkeeper: L Das
L Das should be for his top-order batting. He will get to the crease earlier. And also possesses the potential skill to score against India.
Batters: R Sharma, V Kohli, A Hossain
V Kohli’s relationship with Adelaide is something unexplainable. He will surely make use of it.
R Sharma will be comfortable playing the Bangladeshi bowlers. When settled down, he will put up a show.
A Hossain’s blistering knock in the last game took him to his natural game. So in the next match against India, he will try to hold on to his natural ability.
All-rounders: H Pandya, S Hasan
These world-class all-rounders will play the central role for their teams with both the bat and the ball. Don’t miss them.
Bowlers – M Rahman, A Singh, M Shami, R Ashwin
M Shami’s seam presentation is challenging to handle for Bangladeshi batters.
M Rahman will make his variations speak in the middle overs.
R Ashwin wi be able to produce a high-class performance after missing out on the magic in the last game.
