What are WI vs SA Fantasy Tips?

The surface is gripping a bit and hence, the batting is not an easy task on this surface. You can try a bowler as the vice-captain in a couple of your SL teams.
You could create a few GL teams filled with the bowlers from both sides. Try the performing bowlers from the last game as the captain and vice-captain as well.
