NMG vs PR Dream11 Team
Batsmen:
1] Openers
Cameron Delport will open the batting. While the swashbuckling Aussie has not yet set the stage on fire thus far, he still is the third-highest run-scorer for Paarl Rocks [113 runs at 28.25].
Fantasy Tip:- Jason Roy has been underwhelming thus far. However, the English opener has been in outstanding form coming into the tournament. You can go for him in your Grand League team.
2] Middle-order
Faf du Plessis [312 runs at 62.40] has played a crucial part in Paarl Rocks campaign. The Protea skipper was at it again in the last game, spearheading the run-chase with an imperious 34-ball-61. He’ll lead the middle-order along with the likes of Ben Duckett [198 runs at 33.00], who scored a 32-ball-47 in the last game.
Other Options- Heino Kuhn [140 runs at 28.00]
Wicketkeeper:
Both Rudi Second [99 runs at 19.80] and Mosehle [80 runs at 20.00] have not had a particularly good tournament. But, I’ll go with Second, purely because, he bats at the top of the order.
All-rounder:
JJ Smuts [208 runs, 7 wickets] has led the side from the front, contributing in both facets of the game. He will also spearhead the opening department along with Delport.
Other than Smutts, Dwayne Bravo [7 wickets at 17.28] will be the other all-rounder in my Team along with Grant Thompson, who scored a match-winning 71 in the last game.
Other options:- Chris Morris
Bowlers:
Kerwin Mungroo claimed 3-29 for the Paarl Rocks in the last game while Tabraiz Shamsi, with nine wickets, is the leading wicket-taker. Sisanada Magala [6 wickets at 25.16] and Imran Tahir [4 wickets] are good choices from NMG.
TEAM UPDATE SOON..
