– Callum Ferguson has scored runs at an average of 40 in 12 matches against the opponent & as he’s failing from last couple of matches so might look to play a good knock in this match.
– Mitchell Marsh is safest VC as he’s having good H2H record and also batting at three down with occasionally bowling a couple of overs too.
– Alex Hales & Usman Khawaja are must picks as they have scored runs at an average of 39 & 33 in H2H matches.
– Dropped Munro as he might not score big in three consecutive matches.
– Liam Livingstone might be a good punt as he has been decent in H2H matches & also due to play a good knock in this season.
– Ben Cutting is a must pick considering his attacking hitting down the order & a couple of overs with the bowl.

– Liam Livingstone might be a good VC pick in GL as he’s yet to play a good knock in this season and also he’s having decent numbers against the opponent.
– Expecting a good knock from Billings as he’s getting good starts but failing to convert them into big.
– Aaron Hardie can be another good GL pick as he will do the late hitting for Perth and bowl full time too.
– Andrew Tye & Behrendorff both have good numbers against the Sydney so they might be crucial.
