Top Picks – New Territories Tigers

Babar Hayat is an international-level player and has shown his skills with the bat at every stage of the game. He has scored 57 runs with the bat last year, from his two innings. 

Kinchit Shah is a dependable all-rounder but had low returns in last year’s tournament, scoring only 12 runs and taking no wickets. He would be looking to bounce back.
