Dream 11 Round 8 Prediction: Best Dream11 team for Season Mode Round 8 as TSR helps you form the best possible Dream 11 team

Round 8 of the season mode is upon us with it entailing the first three games of the playoffs. Now, the major trick for this round would be identifying who could play that extra game, one that would decide our second finalist.

The trick here is though to make a balanced team and not really try and predict who might play that extra game in this round. The CSK wicket has played a little funny this season, with it assisting the spinners a whole lot on some instances and sometimes dew taking over and providing fans with a high scoring encounter.

Batsmen for Dream 11 Round 8

I have invested in batsmen from the top 4 just like in the previous rounds and have split them up almost equally. From DC, I get in the in form duo of Shikhar Dhawan and Shreyas Iyer. From MI I have the ever so dependable Suryakumar Yadav, who at 3 always gets you a good enough 30 to keep your Dream 11 team amongst the points.

From SRH, I get in Manish Pandey, who has been the shining light for the team ever since the departure of David Warner. And from CSK, I get in Raina ahead of the in-form du Plessis and Watson as he has time and again performed for CSK in the playoff stage. His ability to play spin is much better than that of both Watson and du Plessis and he will be aided by the fact that both MI spinners would be turning the ball into him tonight.

Wicketkeeper for Dream 11 Round 8

The best possible wicketkeeping option from the 4 keepers on display for the playoffs is QDK, as he opens the batting and has been in fine form this season.

All-Rounders for Dream 11 Round 8

Hardik Pandya becomes an automatic choice for the all-rounder spot, thanks to some brilliant performances with both and ball this season. For the second all-rounder I get in Krunal Pandya, who could get a lot of purchase out of the Chennai wicket tonight and might also be called upon to bat for a few overs at the death as the surface isn’t going to  help the top order batsman just run the show on their terms.

Bowlers for Dream 11 Round 8

Imran Tahir becomes an automatic pick too, one because of his form and two because CSK play at home on a turning Chepauk track. Khaleel Ahmed has made 3 wicket hauls a regularity. He has picked up 17 wickets in 8 games, bamboozling batsmen with his left arm cutters.

For the final bowling I get in Rashid Khan, who has hit form and luck in the last few games. He has asked questions off every ball that he has bowled this season, but hasn’t quite been able to pick up wickets. However, things are taking an upwards turn for him from here on and for the class that he possesses, you absolutely need to get him in.
