Sunrisers Hyderabad

Captain David Warner was struggling coming into IPL 2020 but has been super consistent so far with 9 in the last game being a rare failure. He is their top scorer in IPL 2020 so far and he should be picked in your SRH vs KOL fantasy team without a doubt. Another automatic selection could be Kane Williamson who wasn’t hitting the ball well earlier but he can be the ideal anchor/aggressor as needed by the team.

Your x-factor player today could be Vijay Shankar. He has done nothing of any note for SRH this season but we do know he can hit the ball long and he’s expected to bowl at least a couple of overs each game, so you could even take the risk of making him your fantasy team captain or vice-captain. With the ball, Khaleel Ahmed is super erratic with his lines and lengths and is expensive, but he has a wicket-taking ability.

Kolkata Knight Riders

Now with the captaincy gone, Dinesh Karthik is clearly going to be concentrating on batting and higher up the order too, so he should be picked. A couple of games back, he scored a quickfire 50+ which reminded us of his 360-degrees hitting abilities. Chris Green was picked as the extra overseas bowling option but we think he could be swapped out for Lockie Ferguson and the latter is a must have if he makes the team.

Andre Russell has a clear problem with wide yorkers and bouncers, so we don’t think he’s worth picking in your Nostragamus (Get Rs.200 FREE) fantasy team, especially with his fitness not 100%. We’re picking Pat Cummins who hasn’t been effective with the ball this season but he scored a fine fifty with the bat and if used better, we think he can get a few wickets as well.
