PBKS vs SRH Dream11 Team Fantasy Picks

1. KL Rahul

Punjab Kings skipper KL Rahul has once again been amongst the runs in the ongoing season of the IPL. Although, Rahul played a fine innings of 61 runs off 51 balls in the last game against Delhi Capitals but he faced huge criticism over his dropping strike-rate which was also a big issue in the previous season. However, Punjab Kings will be hopeful that their captain will play a similar innings in this game much like he did in the opening match against Rajasthan where Rahul smashed 91 runs off 50 balls. The Punjab Kings opener has also smashed 300 runs in the last 8 games against Hyderabad at an average of 42.9.

2. David Warner

Just like Rahul, Sunrisers Hyderabad captain David Warner has also played some crucial innings in the last 2 games for his team but he has failed to take his team over the line. Warner smashed a remarkable knock of 54 runs off 37 balls that included 7 fours and 1 six on a challenging Chepauk wicket. He also scored 36 runs off 34 balls in the last match against Mumbai. However, the SRH captain will want to play a big innings for his side and most importantly, in a winning cause. He also has a phenomenal record against Punjab Kings since IPL 2010 having scored 906 runs.

3. Jonny Bairstow

Sunrisers Hyderabad’s swashbuckling batsman Jonny Bairstow has been in a tremendous form off late. Bairstow smashed a terrific half-century in the first match against Kolkata Knight Riders before getting out at the penultimate moment. He also smacked an excellent cameo of 43 runs off only 22 balls while opening the batting in the last game against Mumbai. Bairstow was also the Man of the Series in the recent ODI series against India.

4. Rashid Khan

For the Sunrisers Hyderabad captain David Warner, Afghan leg-spinner Rashid Khan has been go to guy in this tournament so far. SRH’s premier spinner Rashid has enjoyed bowling in helpful conditions in Chennai picking a total of 4 wickets in 3 games at an economy of just 5.33. The leggie also has a sensational track record against Punjab Kings since IPL 2017 having picked 16 wickets in 8 matches at an economy of 6.22. Also, Rashid has almost looked unplayable in these turning conditions and will be a key player to watch out for in this match as well.

5. Chris Gayle

Although, the Universe Boss Chris Gayle is yet to fire on all cylinders in this edition of the IPL but this afternoon game at the Chepauk stadium could be that special moment. Gayle did play a crucial knock of 40 runs in the opening match against Rajasthan Royals but then got out early in the last two games. In his last 5 IPL matches, the big-hitting West Indian batsman has smashed a total of 172 runs which includes a brilliant 99 against Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2020.
