Fantasy Picks for the DC vs MI Match

Captain : C Green

A bold call, indeed. Green is the current sensation of Australia. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to bring his A-Game in this IPL so far. But the little cameo in the last game looked fine for him to regain his confidence.

Vice captain : V Iyer

Looking at his current form, V Iyer can make it big at bigger venues. Surely, the bowling attack of MI will be apt for him to go with.

Batters : V Iyer, , R Sharma, T Varma, T David, Rinku Singh.

Tilak Varma’s ability against spin makes him a right choice.

R Sharma’s terrific knock in the last game has given a high for the bold approach of the Indian skipper. And it is trusted to be continued.

T David is also in the same boat of C Green. He jus needs an innings to build confidence.

Wicketkeeper: I Kishan, N Jagadeesan

Jagadeesan showed a glimpse of what he could do with the bat in the last game. So let’s hope for the best from him.

I Kishan is unfortunate with his hard hitting shot. He just needs luck to favor him at times. Don’t forget that he is a big innings player.

All rounders : C Green, A Russell

Russell did it with the ball. But still needs to find the sweet spot of his bat. Incase if he is unfit for this game, I would suggest you to go with Sunil Narine.
