Small League Combination 1 –
1. Rishabh Pant
2. David Warner

4. Bhanuka Rajapaksa
5. Rovman Powell/Mayank Agarwal
6. Liam Livingstone
7. Mitchell Marsh(C)
8. Kagiso Rabada
9. Rahul Chahar
10. Kuldeep Yadav
11. Anrich Nortje
– Mitchell Marsh might be a good captain choice considering his one down batting and atleast a couple of overs with bowl.
– Expecting Shikhar Dhawan to come good with bat after getting out early in last two consecutive innings which makes him a good VC choice.
– Dropped Jonny Bairstow as he might not go big in three consecutive innings.
– Take anyone from Rovman Powell or Mayank Agarwal whoever gets to bat in first innings.
– Bhanuka Rajapaksa might be a decent punt if any of the opening batter somehow doesn’t do well.
– Expecting Kuldeep Yadav to stay amongst the wickets after going without one in last two innings.
Small League Combination 2 –
1. Rishabh Pant
2. David Warner(C)
3. Shikhar Dhawan
4. Bhanuka Rajapaksa
5. Liam Livingstone(VC)
6. Mitchell Marsh
7. Kagiso Rabada
8. Arshdeep Singh
9. Axar Patel/Anrich Nortje
10. Kuldeep Yadav
11. Shardul Thakur
– David Warner and Liam Livingstone are other good C/VC choices considering their current lethal forms with the bat.
– Taking punt on Arshdeep Singh who might get a couple of wickets especially while bowling in first innings.
– Axar Patel should be preferred over Anrich Nortje if Delhi Capitals gets to bowl in second innings.
– Shardul Thakur might be another decent punt as he’s due to take wickets from last two matches which is expected to come in this one.
– Must try Rishabh Pant as C/VC in 10-20-339 members league especially while batting in second innings.
Grand League Combination –
1. Kona Srikar-Bharat/Prithvi Shaw
2. Rishabh Pant(VC)
3. Shikhar Dhawan

5. Bhanuka Rajapaksa
6. Axar Patel
7. Rishi Dhawan
8. Kuldeep Yadav(C)
9. Shardul Thakur
10. Rahul Chahar
11. Arshdeep Singh
– Kuldeep Yadav looks an open captain choice after going without any wicket in last two consecutive innings.
– Rishabh Pant might be a good VC choice as he’s getting some good starts but failing to convert them into big one’s so expecting it to happen in this match.
– Dropped David Warner, Mitchell Marsh and Liam Livingstone as their early failures will open the winning doors of grand leagues.
– Rishi Dhawan and Axar Patel can give some good fantasy points with the help of bat and ball.
– Take anyone from Prithvi Shaw or Kona Srikar-Bharat whoever gets included in XIs of this match.
– Must try Mayank Agarwal and Lalit Yadav as C/VC in a couple of GL combinations.
