England vs Sri Lanka T20- Moneyball9 Fantasy Tips

 

Batsmen

Jason Roy is my first pick in this category. The way he has been batting in this series, it would be foolish to not bring him in! Also, it is always great to go with opening batsmen in the T20 format as they can make great use of the powerplay and there is no one better than Roy at the moment.

Kusal Mendis is my second pick for this game. His explosive style of play perfectly fits with the T20 format and he has been one of the positive lights in the Sri Lankan side in this tour. Get him in!

James Vince was drafted into the side after Alex Hales got injured and scored a brilliant 50 in the last ODI. He should be batting at number 3, which helps him avoid the initial swing that the Sri Lankan bowlers would get and thus can score freely during the latter stages of the powerplay and during the middle overs.

Wicketkeeper

Between Jos Buttler and Dinesh Chandimal, I opt for Jos Buttler. During the ODIs, I was constantly overlooking Buttler as he batted too low for my liking and Chandimal batting at 4 seemed a far better option.

But during the T20s, Buttler is the go to man for England. His expansive strokeplay and cheeky little scoops have redefined English cricket. Also, he should be batting at number 4 , if England need ot get the best out of his services and thus he should be able to get you at least 50 points.
