KKR vs CSK: How to pick the winning Fantasy XI?
What's the story
KKR will be looking to put an end to their mixed patch as Super Kings visit the Eden Gardens to lock horns with the Knight Riders. CSK are on top of the table and a win here could take them a step closer to securing a place in the playoffs. So whom should you pick in your Fantasy XI tonight? Here is our guide.
Batsmen
Robin Uthappa, Chris Lynn, Shubman Gill, Raina and Rayudu
We have opted for a 5 man batting line for this fixture. Uthappa, Lynn and Gill will be the batsmen from KKR. Gill should be pushed up the order and the youngster will be hungry to seize this opportunity. Red-hot Rayudu and Raina, who is slowly showing signs of his old form, will be the CSK batsman. Dhoni will be our wicketkeeper.
All-rounders
Sunil Narine and Shane Watson
There are plenty of all-rounders in the two sides but we have opted to go with Narine and Watson. Narine, whose pinch-hitting ability makes him dangerous, could bag you some valuable points while Shane Watson has been phenomenal this season especially with the bat. If Watson could give CSK a good start tonight, no one would be able to sop the yellow brigade.
Bowlers
Shivam Mavi, Karn Sharma and Kuldeep Yadav
A three bowler line-up will complete this XI. Shivam Mavi has impressed with his pace and accuracy this season, hence he will make our XI. Kuldeep Yadav and Karn Sharma will be the two spinners. Spinners will have a huge role to play tonight at the Eden Gardens, considering the large boundaries. We fancy them bagging a wicket or two with ease.
Information
Captain and vice-captain
Sunil Narine will be the captain of this XI. He can not only score runs at the top but is a valuable bowler at the Eden Gardens. We have gone with Shane Watson as the vice captain of this XI.
