CTB vs OTG Dream11 Prediction

CTB vs OTG Dream11 Wicket-keepers

Cam Fletcher (Price 9) will be the clear choice among the options available as he is the only one who has played some major knocks in the tournament.

CTB vs OTG Dream11 Batsmen

Chad Bowes (Price 9.5):- Bowes is a clean-hitter of the ball and can take full advantage of the powerplay overs and he is in the list of top 10 highest run-getters.

Jack Boyle (Price 9):- Boyle is also a very good option who can make use of the powerplay overs and is in a decent form too. He and Bowes make a very good pair.

Neil Broom (Price 10):- Broom is the 4th highest run-scorer of the league and as an opener, he would be the sure sort pick.

 Hamish Rutherford (Price 9.5):- Rutherford is an experienced campaigner and as an opener, he is a very good pick. He is also the 5th highest run-scorer of the tournament.

Nick Kelly (Price 8.5):- Kelly is an aggressive player who can hit the ball quite hard and can make maximum use of minimum deliveries and he is the 8th highest run-scorer of the tournament.

CTB vs OTG Dream11 All-rounders

Dean Foxcroft (Price 9.5) and Cole McConchie (Price 9) are the clear choices as both of them are very good assets with bat especially Foxcroft, who is in very good form lately whereas McConchie is in the list of top 5 highest wicket-takers and is also a very good batsman.

[Michael Rippon is having a very poor season whereas Kitchen is also not in a very good form this year]

CTB vs OTG Dream11 Bowlers

Will Williams (Price 8.5):- Williams has been excellent so far. He is the 5th highest wicket-taker of the tournament and a gun death bowler.

 Jacob Duffy (Price 8.5):-  A genuine wicket-taker in middle overs and is in a decent form too.

 Michael Rae (Price 8):-  At the price of 8, Rae is a very decent option to complete the line-up.

[Ed Nuttal was also a very good option but just to keep the number of bowling options same for both teams, 2 bowlers of Otago were considered]
