– Daryl Mitchell might be a good captain choice as he’s expected to open the innings and bowl atleast 2-3 overs too.
– Glenn Maxwell looks safest VC choice considering his opening batting order and a couple of overs with the bowl.
– Tom Latham can be another good pick considering his current top form with bat and decent numbers in H2H matches.
– Dropped Henry Shipley and Cam Fletcher as they might not go big in three consecutive innings.
– Took death over bowlers of both the teams as they’re expected to give some good fantasy points.
– Cole McConchie and Lockie Ferguson can be another good C/VC choices considering their consistency with respective roles.

– Taking punt on Chapman and Bowes as C/VC considering their good numbers with bat at venue and H2H matches.
– Robert O’Donnell might be a decent punt especially if a couple of top order batters depart early.
– Sean Solia can give decent fantasy points as he’s batting at 4-5 down and bowling a couple of overs too.
– Henry Shipley can be picked at the place of Ed Nuttall especially if Canterbury Kings gets to bat first.
– Must try Matt Henry as C/VC in 10-20-339 members league especially while bowling in first innings.
– William Somerville can be another decent pick in risky SL combinations.
