SL vs WI Dream11 Predictions - 2nd Test 2021 | 29 Nov

The 2021 West Indies tour of Sri Lanka is on and everyone is having a tough time to switch from T20 mode to Tests, but the home team was clinical in the 1st Test, winning just as skies were graying and probably with just about 10-15 minutes of gameplay left at Galle. The weather is overcast with high chances of rain for the first couple of days for the 2nd Test as well, but we’re sure to see a result again.

The reason we’re saying so is because spin has a huge role to play and we don’t expect big team totals of 300+ on such a pitch. Sri Lanka once again is favourite going into this game but West Indies showed moments of brilliance but weren’t able to keep that up right through the 5 days of the game. Keep reading for our complete MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) fantasy preview of the SL vs WI 2nd Test…

Numbers

Head to head in last 5 games, SL leads 2-0; 3 drawn.
Dimuth Karunaratne – centuries in three consecutive tests.
Roston Chase scores in the 1st Test – 2 and 1.

Sri Lanka

The captain of the side can’t be left out of your SL vs WI fantasy team because Dimuth Karunaratne is a true Test batsman, with 5 Tests ago being the last time he didn’t get a 50+ score. In the last game, he scored 147 and 83 and narrowly missed twin centuries in the game. He’s got 5 single digit scores in his last 6 professional outings with the bat but we’re picking Dhananjaya de Silva who got 61 in the 1st innings and will bowl as well.

We’re leaving out Oshada Fernando who’s more of a white ball cricketer and got only 17 runs in the last game. Angelo Mathews got a fifty in the 2nd innings but we’re risking it and leaving him out of our SL vs WI Dream11 team because there are other batters and he doesn’t even bow much these days. We love the angles Lasith Embuldeniya creates while Ramesh Mendis hit the cracks the most and got 7 wickets in the 1st Test.

West Indies

It was a major failure for Roston Chase in the last game with the bat, scoring only 3 runs in the Test but he’s been in good touch and we think he’ll get back to scoring. In fact, he can even be picked as fantasy captain or vice-captain as his off-spin got him a 5-fer in the 1st innings. Talking about a captain or vice-captain option, there’s Jason Holder who scored 36 in the 1st innings but had a wicketless Test as there’s no assistance for pace here.

He may not have a century in any of his last 5 Tests but Kraigg Brathwaite is the equivalent of SL’s Karunaratne and is their best chance of a good start, so pick him in your MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) SL vs WI fantasy team. Also, we’re adding Rahkeem Cornwall to our side because while everyone’s been blocking, he played his shots in scores of 39 and 13, while getting 2 wickets as well.
