Player Picks
Ishan Kishan MI | WK
Ishan Kishan has been explosive as a batter in the ongoing season. The star batter has been aggressive at the top and provided a good platform for the middle-order batters. In addition to it, he has been good with the gloves against both spinners and pacers.
Rohit Sharma MI | BAT
Rohit Sharma smashed his first hundred in the IPL since 2012. The star batter is in the form of his life and would love to make the most of it. He is aggressive at the top and can anchor the innings in the case of a collapse. like he did against CSK.
Suryakumar Yadav MI | BAT
Suryakumar Yadav smashed an 18-ball hundred against RCB. In the other 2 games against DC and CSK, he registered ducks. While consistency is an issue, the unorthodox batter can come good. It is difficult to keep a batter like him out of action for a long time.
Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team
Shikhar Dhawan
PBKS | BAT
Shikhar Dhawan has been out of form in the last few games. His place in the side is in danger. While he can score runs, it is difficult to trust him at this point as Mullanpur's wicket is not that easy to bat on. Dhawan is out of confidence and bats slow.
Harshal Patel
PBKS | BOWL
Harshal Patel can take wickets. But he concedes a lot of runs. In almost every match, he has an economy of over 10. It is very risky to have him in the side given the caliber of the MI batters. In the death overs, he looks a bit clueless.
Romario Shepherd
MI | ALL
Romario Shepherd is a good player. However, the chances of him getting an opportunity to bat are less, as he bats mostly at number 8. Even with the ball, he is more of a filler and is not a wicket-taker. Hence, it is better to avoid him.
