Hot Fantasy Picks

(i) Batters 

Kyle Mayers (BR)- As witnessed in the previous match, he was the one-man army for the Barbados-based franchise and will prove to be a tough competitor for his opponent's bowling attack.

Mark Deyal (SLK)- Although SLK lost their inaugural match, Deyal scored 35 runs at the strike rate of 145. He may prove to be the support when openers fail to score.

(ii) All Rounders 

Jason Holder (BR)- Well known for his all-round performance, Holder is a good power-hitter with finishing abilities and also a bowler who can bowl in tough situations where his team needs wickets. 

Rahkeem Cornwall (BR)- A hard-hitting all-rounder usually known for striking balls out of the ground. Also, a bowler with promising stats, he is often used as a sixth option in the bowling category.

(iii) Bowlers 

Alzarri Joseph (SLK)- It is impossible to forget him! He is a threat with the ball for the opponent batters. His prolific performance in the 1st match was just the beginning and still, the whole tournament is left to witness his magic with the ball. 

(iv) Wicket Keepers

Quinton De Kock (BR)- He is no doubt the best wicketkeeping choice in the South African national team and also is a promising opener in any cricket format.

Risky Captaincy Choice

Obed McCoy is a skilled bowler who has recently performed well in most of the international series games he played against some big countries. He is the perfect man to be bait for your team.
