Player Picks

9
C

Steve Smith AUS | BAT

The star Australian batter scored 37 off 107 in the first innings and added an unbeaten 25 in the second innings while his team collapsed on just 91 runs. Smith has amazing numbers in Tests and will be a safe captaincy choice in the Dream11 Team.

8.5
C

Rohit Sharma IND | BAT

Indian captain top-scored 120 off 212 in the first innings of the first match in Nagpur. This was his back-to-back century after scoring a hundred against New Zealand in the third ODI last month.

9
C

Ravichandran Ashwin IND | ALL

The veteran Indian spinner took three wickets in the first innings and added a five-wicket haul in the second innings to bowl out Australia on just 91 runs in the Nagpur Test.

9

Ravindra Jadeja IND | ALL

The world no.1 Test all-rounder won the Player of the Match award in the Nagpur Test for taking a five-wicket haul in the first innings and scoring a crucial 70 off 185.

9

Marnus Labuschagne AUS | BAT

The star Australian batter top-scored 49 off 123 for Australia in the first innings of the Nagpur Test. Labuschagne ranks first in the current ICC Test batter's chart and should be in the Dream11 Team at any cost.

9

Virat Kohli IND | BAT

The former Indian captain failed to make any impact in the opening Test match with a score of 12 off 26 in the first innings. But Kohli has impressive stats while playing against Australia and should be part of the Dream11 Team.

7

Todd Murphy AUS | BOWL

The 22-year-old off-spinner made his international debut in the Nagpur Test and made an instant impact. He took seven wickets in an innings and costs only 7.0 credits on the Dream11 Team.

7

Shreyas Iyer IND | BAT

Shreyas missed the first Test due to a delay in his injury recovery but has joined the team for the remainder of the series. He was India's leading run-scorer across formats last year and is available for just 7.0 credits on the Dream11 Team.

8

Axar Patel IND | ALL

The spin all-rounder managed to get just one wicket from two innings in the Nagpur Test but shone with the bat by scoring a crucial 84 off 174 in the first innings.

8.5

KL Rahul

IND | BAT

The star Indian opener started well by scoring 20 off 71 in the first innings of the Nagpur Test but failed to convert it into a big knock. Rahul has struggled for consistency across formats lately as well.

9

David Warner

AUS | BAT

The experienced Australian opener managed to score just 1 and 10 scores from two innings in the Nagpur Test. Warner has struggled for the big knocks across formats and should be avoided for the Dream11 Team selection.
