– Lokesh Rahul looks a good captain choice as he might go big after getting out at duck during the last match.

– Suryakumar Yadav looks another good captain choice considering his current lethal form with bat.
– Jason Holder might be a good VC choice especially while bowling in first innings.
– Can take anyone from Deepak Hooda or Ayush Badoni since they can come handy with bat if any of the top order batter depart early.
– Taking punt on Fabian Allen who’s expected to bat at 4-5 down and bowl atleast a couple of overs.
– Must try Rohit Sharma as C/VC in 10-20-339 members league especially while batting first.
