C

Shaun Fouché NAM | BOWL

Shoun Fouche was outstanding in the opening match with both bat and ball. He scored 55 runs and also picked up 3 wickets.

6.5
C

Kiplin Doriga PNG | WK

Doriga has been in sublime form with the bat at the top of the order. He smashed 73 runs in the last game and can be backed to do well once again.

8

Ruben Trumpelmann NAM | BOWL

He can be lethal with the new ball and picked up 2 wickets in his previous match. He will be a top pick for this match.

8.5

Gerhard Erasmus NAM | BAT

Erasmus has plenty of experience and the captain of Namibia scored 22 runs in the previous match. He can also bowl a few overs.

8.5

Chad Soper PNG | BOWL

Chad Soper picked up 4 wickets in the previous match against UAE and will be a handy budget pick.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

9

Helao-Pikkie YaFrance

NAM | ALL

Pikki Ya France is batting down the order and could pick up just 1 wicket in the last game. Hence avoid him for this match.

8

Riley Hekure

PNG | ALL

Hekure went wicket less in the last game and with plenty of better options he can be left out for this match.
