Bengaluru Blasters Review
The bulk of the scoring has been done by Mayank Agarwal and LR Chethan. The latter has been phenomenal with the bat and, once again, will be the player to watch out for.
Wicket-keeper batter Suraj Ahuja’s last three scores read: 35 (23), 32 (16), and 26 (20). He is a handy pick to have in your fantasy XI. Shubhang Hedge’s all-round prowess makes him an automatic pick.
In the bowling front, Lavish Kaushal and Naveen MG have led the way. While the former has 13 wickets to his name, Naveen has 11.
Shivamogga Lions
Shivamogga didn’t win a single game in their first six matches but they have managed to secure victories in their last three matches. The Lions are in great form and it shouldn’t come as a surprise if they beat the Bengaluru Blasters on Wednesday.
Abhinav Manohar’s batting brilliance has been the biggest reason behind those wins. In their last match, he played a sensational unbeaten knock of 76 off 34 to help his team chase down a mammoth 207 in 20 overs. He should be a captaincy choice in your fantasy XI.
Rohan Naveen has played handy knocks in the last couple of games and will be a player to watch out for. Besides, Hardik Raj remains a must-have pick due to his all-round prowess. Nilal Ullal is also among the runs and wouldn’t be a bad pick, either.
In the bowling department, V Koshik should be your go-to pick.
