Top Picks

Rahul Chahar

Rahul Chahar is one of the lead spinners for India in the T20 World Cup and the leg-spinner is faring decently. But he is short of wickets in the second leg. The Sharjah pitch is the perfect surface for him to regain his confidence. Chahar has picked only a couple of wickets in four matches in the UAE leg and the man can add a few more to the tally in this game.

Axar Patel

Axar is that kind of a player who does his job well every time but goes unnoticed all the time. Even in the second leg, the left-arm seamer has justified his selection in India’s World Cup squad. He has accounted three scalps in as many match since the league has resumed and the Sharjah surface should help him as well.
