– Babar Azam and Rizwan looks safest C/VC choices considering their recent lethal form with bat and good numbers at venue and H2H matches.
– Joe Clarke did well during BBL and practice matches which makes him a good pick.
– Taking punt on Khushdil Shah who can come handy with bat at middle order and expected to bowl part time overs.
– Nabi will be a must pick especially while batting first as he’s expected to bowl a couple of overs and bat at middle order.
– Can take anyone from David Willey or Tim David whoever gets included in XIs as they were in quarantine period.
– Didn’t took Mohammad Amir as he’s available in higher credits and also looked rusty with bowl in recent times.
– Imran Tahir can be picked at the place of Dahani especially while bowling in second innings.
– Rumman Raees and Ilyas did well at venue and H2H matches which makes them decent punts.

– Taking punt on Mohammad Nabi as VC who can give some good fantasy points with the help of bat and ball.
– Take anyone from Rilee Rossouw or Shan Masood as both have shown hit or miss type of form in recent times.
