CD vs NK Dream11 Team
Batters + Wicket-Keeper
Anton Devcich [4-27] and Tim Siefert [46] will open the batting for my Dream11 side. While Devcich failed with the bat in the last game, he claimed 4-27 to wreck through Wellington Firebirds’ unit. Siefert will also don the wicket-keeping gloves.
Dean Brownlie scored an imperious 99 in the last game. He will spearhead the middle-order along with the likes of Josh Clarkson [278 runs in Ford Trophy] and Tom Brice [150 runs in Ford Trophy].
Other Options:- Will Young, Christian Leopard
All-rounder
Mitchell Santner, George Worker and Doug Bracewell are safe bets for the all-rounder spot along with Devcich.
Bowlers
Ish Sodhi [2-34], Seth Rance [3 wickets in Ford Trophy], Ben Wheeler [10 wickets in Ford Trophy] and Brett Randell [1-16] will lead the bowling department.
Captain/Vice-Captain Picks
Dean Brownlie, Anton Devcich, Tom Bruce, Josh Clarkson, Will Young, Tom Siefert
