Last 4 matches at Dubai in IPL 2020 – all won batting second.

Royal Challengers Bangalore

After just 18 runs in his first 3 games in IPL 2020, captain Virat Kohli has been great in terms of scoring runs, with a tally of 365 runs in 1- games now, including 2 fifties and a batting average of 60+. He is the highest scorer for RCB against CSK and he proved that in the last game too, with 90(52)*. Along with him, Devdutt Padikkal seems to be a good pick even though he seems to be tiring in this season, because he’s managing to get a start in every game.

Though he’s got only 1 wicket in his last 3 games this season, Washington Sundar has been good with the ball and he’s been promoted in the batting order quite a few times as well, so there’s no point of leaving him out. South Africa pacer Chris Morris has been brilliant with the ball too, with 9 wickets in 5 games and in the one game he got to bat, he smashed 25* and he’s someone you can’t skip from your BLR vs CSK fantasy team.

Chennai Super Kings

In the last game, Shane Watson missed out and because of that, Ruturaj Gaikwad opened the innings. It was a fiery Mumbai pace attack and he had to walk back for 0 but Ruturaj is super talented and if he comes out to bat at the top again, expect a better score for him. While he didn’t do well in the last 2 games for CSK in IPL 2020, Ambati Rayudu had three consecutive forties prior to that and he should also be picked.

One of the only positives for CSK in IPL 2020 has been Sam Curran who scored 52 in the last game to get them to a more respectable score, while also getting 10 wickets in 11 games this season. in our Nostragamus (Get Rs.200 FREE) fantasy team. With 9 wickets in 8 games this season, Shardul Thakur has been good in the powerplay as well as the death overs, so he’s another person you shouldn’t miss out on.
