Preview for Dream11 Fantasy:

Madrid United CC will play their first game of the tournament against Intellectual CC.

Meanwhile, in bowling line-up, they have Robiul Khan and lttfaq Ahmad. Even, the latter had taken a three-fer in one of the games in the aforementioned tournament.

Intellectual CC struggled a lot in their curtain-raiser as their bowlers couldn’t restrict the opponent for a nominal score. Only Hassan Askari did a great job with the ball as he managed to grab a three-fer for his team against pirates Pinatar CC. There is no doubt over the fact that Intellectual CC is expected to bank on their batsmen in the game against Madrid United CC.
