Indian T20 League 2019: Match 20, Bangalore vs Delhi – Dream 11 and Dotball Prediction

Thanks to a superman effort by Andre Russell, Bangalore still remain winless in the competition despite Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers producing magic with their willows. They will host Delhi in a day game at M.Chinnaswamy Stadium on Sunday and will have to treat every game as a knockout one. Shreyas Iyer’s Delhi have shown promise in patches and will be looking to seek momentum behind them before the business end of the tournament comes by.

From a fantasy point of view, since Kohli and de Villiers have now hit their straps, it will be yet another tough team selection. After an indifferent season so far, it is about time Shikhar Dhawan gets going and provides a rollicking start for Delhi. The inclusion of Pawan Negi has provided ammunition to a struggling Bangalore bowling attack. Negi is likely to play a pivotal role again in the company of Yuzvendra Chahal.

Injury Updates: No injury concerns in either camps.

Head to Head: Last 5 games
Bangalore 5 wins

Dotball Prediction:

Dotball team for Head to Head/Small Contests:

Wicket-Keeper: Parthiv Patel

Batsmen: Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Shikar Dhawan

All-Rounders: Marcus Stoinis (VC), Axar Patel

Bowlers: Kagiso Rabada, Ishant Sharma, Navdeep Saini, Yuzvendra Chahal (C), Harshal Patel.

Captain and Vice-Captain choices

Captain: Despite almost everyone taken to the cleaners at the Chinnaswamy, Chahal continues to have a good time on a ground which is considered to be a bowler’s nightmare. With 9 wickets off 5 games, the legspinner is the holder of the purple cap.

Vice Captain: Marcus Stoinis gave a sneak-peek into his destructive ability during his unbeaten 13-ball 28. He is also a handful with his cutters during the middle overs.

Fantasy Tips

A lot of Delhi’s batting relies on Dhawan and Iyer, who both haven’t really gone on to register big scores. Chahal is continuing to have a ball in the IPL and will be a force to reckon with for the Delhi team.

Dotball team for Large/Grand Contests:

Wicket-Keeper: Rishabh Pant

Batsmen: AB de Villiers, Prithvi Shaw, Shreyas Iyer

All-Rounders: Moeen Ali, Chris Morris

Bowlers: Yuzvendra Chahal, Umesh Yadav, Navdeep Saini, Kagiso Rabada, Sandeep Lamichanne

Fantasy Tips

Prithvi Shaw will look to carry his form into this game after missing out int he previous one. Lamichanne will look to take a leaf out of his counterpart Chahal and do the job for his side. Moeen could finally get his chance to showcase his talents.

Captain and Vice-Captain choices

Captain: Rabada stunned everyone with his pinpoint yorkers during the Super Over which gave Delhi a thrilling win over KKR. With 7 wickets off 5 games, Rabada is fourth highest wicket-taker int he tournament and can be a handful bowler on the Bangalore track.

Vice-Captain: Rishabh Pant is Delhi’s leading run scorer and looks to be in good form this season. With 158 runs at a stellar strike rate of almost 180, the 21-year-old will look take full toll of a small ground and won’t hold back even to the likes of Chahal.

Dream 11 Prediction

Suggested Playing XI No. 1 for Head to Head/Small Leagues

Keeper – Parthiv Patel

Batsmen – AB de Villiers (VC), Virat Kohli (C), Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer, Prithvi Shaw

All-Rounders – Chris Morris, Axar Patel

Bowlers – Pawan Negi, Kagiso Rabada, Sandeep Lamicchane

Fantasy Tips

Pawan Negi, apart from his spin partner Chahal who has been in terrific form,  proved to be the shining light in an otherwise listless bowling attack. He looks set to play another pivotal hand against Delhi.

Suggested Playing XI No.2 for Grand/Mega Leagues:

Keeper – Rishabh Pant (VC)

Batsmen – AB de Villiers (C), Colin Munro, Shreyas Iyer, Prithvi Shaw

All-Rounders – Marcus Stoinis, Axar Patel, Rahul Tewatia

Bowlers – Yuzvendra Chahal, Pawan Negi, Navdeep Saini

Fantasy Tips

De Villiers lit up the Chinnaswamy Stadium with a sizzling knock of 61. With his team sliding to 5 successful defeats, de Villiers will be inspired to turn his team’s fortunes around with another whirlwind knock. Munro can be a surprise pick and has the game to launch a scathing attack on his day.
