Average Score

Player Picks

7
C

Karim Janat AFG | ALL

The young batting all-rounder conceded just 12 runs from his two-over spell and then top-scored with 53 off 38 to guide his team to a successful chase in the last game.

8.5
VC

Waseem Muhammad UAE | BAT

The in-form UAE batter scored a crucial 33 off 35 in the last match. This was his fourth 30-plus knock from his last five overall innings.

9
C

Rashid Khan AFG | BOWL

The world no.1 T20I bowler took two wickets 34 in the last match and also scored winnings runs while chasing. Rashid has taken six wickets from his last three innings and will be a safe captaincy choice on the Dream11 Team.

8.5

Mujeeb Ur Rahman AFG | BOWL

The young Afghan spinner failed to get any wickets but bowled an economical spell by conceding 19 runs from his three-over spell in the last match. Mujeeb has struggled for the wickets in the recent games but has amazing numbers in T20Is.

7.5

Ibrahim Zadran AFG | BAT

The star Afghan batter was the leading run-getter in the team's last bilateral series against Sri Lanka with two centuries in ODIs. Zadran scored eight runs in the last game but has been in good form across formats lately.

8.5

Rohan Mustafa UAE | ALL

The veteran batting all-rounder scored unbeaten 22 runs off 15 balls in the last match and conceded just 14 runs while defending.

8

Chundangapoyil Rizwan UAE | BAT

UAE captain was the top-scorer for his team with 48 off 41 knock before getting run out in the last match. He costs only 8.0 credits on the Dream11 Team and will be a good budget buy.

8

Junaid Siddique UAE | BOWL

The experienced pacer gave UAE a terrific start with two early wickets of Afghanistan openers but didn't get much support from other bowlers in the last match.

8

Afsar Zazai AFG | WK

The 29-year-old wicketkeeper-batter donned gloves ahead of Gurbaz in the last match and made a big impact with a 48 off 40 knock while chasing a tough total.

8

Hazratullah Zazai

AFG | BAT

The young Afghanistan opener scored just one run in the last match and has scored only 34 runs from his last five overall innings and should be avoided for the Dream11 Team selection.

8

Sanchit Sharma

UAE | ALL

The 21-year-old failed to get any wickets in the last match while conceding 14 runs from his two-over spell. Sharma has managed to get just one wicket from his last five overall matches.
