Champions Trophy Fantasy Tips: Fantasy Guide for India vs Pakistan Final

Fandromeda Fantasy League(Fantasy Guide for India vs Pakistan Final)

Transfer out: Mushfiqur Rahim, Shakib Al Hasan, Tamim Iqbal

Transfer in: Ravindra Jadeja/Yuvraj Singh, Mohammad Amir, Sarfaraz Ahmed

Now, I already have Babar Azam, Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Hasani Ali, Junaid Khan, Bhuvi and Ashwin in my side for this game.

With three transfers in the kitty(2+1 free), I can bring in 3 big players for this game.

Jasprit Bumrah would be the first player that I would get in for this game. Having won the man of the match award in the previous game, Bumrah would be high on confidence and he has been bowling exceptionally well with the new and the old ball. Against a inexperienced Pakistan batting line up, you can expect Bumrah to fetch you at least 3 wickets. Get him in!(More on the Bumrah transfer later)

My team combination forces me to go in with an all rounder and wicketkeeper for the last 2 slots.

For the all rounder spot, it is a straight toss up between Ravindra Jadeja and Yuvraj Singh. The Pakistan team struggled to score runs off Jadeja in the opening game and ultimately provided him with wickets while trying to up the ante. Yuvraj Singh was provided with a life in the game against Pakistan and he made them pay big time. It’s very difficult to predict who out of the two would fire tonight, so I’ll be taking help of the toss to help me decide.

If India bat first, get in Yuvraj, because while batting second either he might have too much to do, or too little. If India bowl first, get in Jaddu.

Now, the team spread constraint will kick in for this game.

If India bat first, I’ll bet getting in Yuvraj and Amir(not Bumrah). If India bowl first, I’ll be getting in Jaddu and Amir. I can’t get in Bumrah in as I need to get in an all rounder and also because of the team spread constraint

For the wicketkeeper slot, I am again forced to get in Sarfaraz Ahmed(because of the team constraint issue). If you can, get in MSD, if India bat first and get in Sarfaraz, if Pakistan bat first.

Batting Star: Virat Kohli

Bowling Star: Bhuvi/Hasan Ali(whoever bowls first)
