WEF vs NOS Dream11 Team
Wicket-keepers: N Pooran, J Bairstow
Batsmen: H Brook
All-rounder: B Stokes, M Short, D Willey, M Santner, L Wells
Bowlers: H Rauf, M Henry, M Potts
Nicholas Pooran (Northern Superchargers)
Last 5 Performances | Career Strike Rate | Performance in the Hundred 2024 | Captain/Vice-Captain in SL |
11, 9, 65*, 62, 10 | 137.72 | 157 runs in 5 matches at a strike rate of 137.71 | ✅ |
The left-handed batter is the leading run-getter for Northern Superchargers in the ongoing season. The West Indies international has already smashed two match-winning fifties for his team and he will be looking to make another telling contribution to the team’s cause.
Mitchell Santner (Northern Superchargers)
Last 5 Performances | Career Strike Rate | Performance in the Hundred 2024 | Captain/Vice-Captain in SL |
DNB, 2/23, 1/24, 1/35, 1/27 | 19.00 | 4 wickets in 4 matches at a strike rate of 15.00 | ❌ |
The Kiwi all-rounder has picked up 4 wickets in 3 innings so far and has provided his team with breakthroughs whenever needed. However, he is batting too low in the batting order to make any significant contribution with the bat.
Ben Stokes (Northern Superchargers)
Last 5 Performances | Career Strike Rate | Performance in the Hundred 2024 | Captain/Vice-Captain in SL |
0, 8, 7, 52, 42, 8 & 0/17, 0/18, DNB, 1/32, 0/18 |
128.01 (Bat) & 23.54 (Bowl) |
0 runs and 0 wickets in 1 match | ✅ |
The English all-rounder is back with Northern Superchargers but he failed in his first game of the season. However, he opened the batting for his team and also bowled with the new ball. The experienced all-rounder is expected to make an impactful contribution in this contest.
David Willey (Welsh Fire)
Last 5 Performances | Career Strike Rate | Performance in the Hundred 2024 | Captain/Vice-Captain in SL |
21, 1, 13, 4, 26 & 0/11, 0/11, 0/16, 0/23, 3/14 |
123.27 (Bat) & 16.21 (Bowl) |
39 runs and 5 wickets in 5 matches | ✅ |
Despite being inconsistent with both bat and ball, David Willey has been the best performer for Welsh Fire so far this season. Due to his all-round abilities, he is a better captaincy option than his teammates on current form.
Jonny Bairstow (Welsh Fire)
Last 5 Performances | Career Strike Rate | Performance in the Hundred 2024 | Captain/Vice-Captain in SL |
16, 55, 12, 5, 18 | 125.39 | 106 runs in 5 matches at a strike rate of 116.48 | ❌ |
Despite being miserably out of form Jonny Bairstow has been Welsh Fire’s leading run-getter this season so far. The right-handed batter has scored only one fifty so far and he needs to get back to his best to revive his team’s fortunes.
