The Pacers might get a bit of going here in the second half of the game. So, the toss-winning skipper will aim to bat first to post a big to tackle the opponent.

8.5

Saud Shakeel

PAK | BAT

Pakistan batter Saud Shakeel failed to live up to the expectations of his side in the last game against South Africa, scoring only 15 runs off 16 balls, with only two fours.

7

Rachin Ravindra

NZ | ALL

Star New Zealand all-rounder Rachin Ravindra sustained a fatal injury in the first game against Pakistan. So, he will not be available in the playing XI for the summit clash; so, it would be a better move to avoid him while making this game’s dream11 team.
