6

Harrish Kannan

MSA | ALL

Harrish Kannan is batting lower down the order and might not face much balls to have an impact. Hence avoid him for this match.

7.5

Aaliyan Mehmood

PAK A | BAT

Aaliyan Mehmood has been wicket less in his previous few matches and with plenty of better options he can be left out.
