Fantasy Picks

Captain: S Khan

S Khan has been brilliant with the varieties he possesses as a leg spinner. His wicket-taking knacks have been the most important factor for the Pakistani team. Above all, his batting against SA gave us a glimpse of what he could do against a quality bowling side.

Vice-captain: D Conway

D Conway can outplay the tightest bowling lineup of this world cup. His ability to convert a start into a big innings makes him the vice-captain.

Wicketkeeper: M Rizwan, D Conway

M Rizwan will fight his heart out in games like this. Don’t miss him.

Batters: I Ahmed, K Williams, G Phillips

Williamson is a bright choice for a batter to face Pakistan’s quality bowlers in the given Australian conditions.

G Phillips’ destructive batting and his confidence in connecting the ball at present is the most important point to note.

I Ahmed’s middle-order batting will be crucial against a good bowling attack o New Zealand. Considering his performance throughout the tournament, Ahmed is a must-have player.

All-rounders: S Khan, M Nawaz, M Santner

M Nawaz’s batting is crucial for Pakistan in the lower middle order. With the left-arm spin, M Santner and M Nawaz will be key elements for their teams.

Bowlers: T Boult, T Southee, S Afridi

S Afridi is back in form. A confident S Afridi is the most threatening bowler to face.

The experienced bowlers of NZ, Southee, and Boult, are the best options in a knockout match like this.
