Player Picks
Ruturaj Gaikwad CSK | BAT
Ruturaj Gaikwad has been in blazing form in the last few matches. the star batter has found his mojo and scoring runs for fun. In the last two matches, his scores are 107 and 98 respectively. He is expected to continue his good run against PBKS.
Ashutosh Sharma PBKS | BOWL
Ashutosh Sharma has been one of the finds of the season so far. The finisher of PBKS has saved his side from many collapses and won some matches for his side. Despite batting lower down the order, he can be trusted to deliver points as a batter.
Shashank Singh PBKS | ALL
Much like Ashutosh Sharma, Shashank Singh has been one of the finds of the season so far. The finisher of PBKS has saved his side from many collapses and won some matches for his side. In the last match, he helped PBKS to finish the match against KKR.
Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team
MS Dhoni
CSK | WK
MS Dhoni does not get enough chances to bat. He usually comes to bat lower down the order in the last few overs of the match. Given the consistency of Shivam Dube and Ruturaj Gaikwad, Dhoni has often come out to bat with just a few overs left in the game.
Ajinkya Rahane
CSK | BAT
Ajinkya Rahane has been woefully out of form. There is a good chance of him getting dropped from the side to accommodate better players. After having a good season as a batter in 2023, Rahane has failed to make an impact in 2024.
Jitesh Sharma
PBKS | WK
Jitesh Sharma has had a poor time in the middle. The wicketkeeper batter was the best performers for PBKS in the last couple of seasons. In the ongoing season, he has not been at his best. Hence, it is risky to have him on the fantasy team.
