Player Picks

9
C

Sikandar Raza DS | ALL

Veteran Zimbabwe all-rounder scored 219 runs and took 10 wickets in the recent T20 World Cup 2022 and has established himself as one of the best all-rounders in T20 cricket.

8.5
C

Bhanuka Rajapaksa DS | BAT

The in-form Sri Lankan wicketkeeper batter scored 125 runs, including 34 runs off 22 balls against New Zealand, from seven innings in the T20 World Cup 2022 and will be a key batter for his team in LPL 2022.

8

Charith Asalanka CS | BAT

The star middle-order batter scored only one run against Kandy Falcons in the last game but is in good form lately. He smashed 83 runs against Afghanistan in the last ODI match and will be a key batter for his team in this tournament.

8.5

Angelo Mathews CS | ALL

The veteran batting all-rounder scored the highest 26 runs off 23 balls against Kandy Falcons in the last game. He scored 191 runs from just five innings last season and can also contribute with the ball also.

7.5

Jordan Cox DS | WK

The young English wicketkeeper-batter scored 34 runs off just 21 balls against Bangla Tigers in the recently concluded Abu Dhabi T10 League 2022 and has scored 63 runs from three innings in the tournament. He made 43 runs off 22 deliveries in his first game of the LPL.

8

Seekkuge Prasanna CS | ALL

The 37-year-old bowling all-rounder took a wicket while conceding just 23 runs against Kandy Falcons in the last match. He took 13 wickets from just eight innings at an economy rate of 6.54 last season.

Dinesh Chandimal

CS | WK

The experienced wicketkeeper batter scored only nine runs against Kandy Falcons in the last match and managed to score only 47 runs against Afghanistan in the recent ODI series.
