11. Umaid Asif/Chris Jordan
– Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman looks safest C/VC choices considering their consistency to score runs.
– Nabi and Imad Wasim are must picks as they can give some good fantasy points with the help of bat and ball.
– Can take anyone from Umaid Asif or Jordan as they’re expected to bowl in death overs.
– Philip Salt can be picked at the place of Joe Clarke who might not go big in consecutive innings.
– Shaheen Afridi and Rashid Khan are other good C/VC choices for SL combinations.

– Going heavy on Lahore Qalandars as they’re the favourites to win this encounter.
– Mohammad Nabi might be a good VC choice considering his middle order batting and full overs with bowl.

– Taking punt on David Weise who’s expected to bowl atleast 2-3 overs and come handy with bat at down the order.
– Philip Salt might be a decent punt as he can give some good fantasy points with the help of bat and gloves.
– Didn’t took Sharjeel Khan in either of the teams considering his inconsistent form.
