IPL 2017 Fantasy Guide: Fantasy Tips for Gujarat Lions vs Kings XI Punjab

Fandromeda

Transfer out: Rishab Pant, Chris Morris

Transfer in: Hashim Amla, Axar Patel

Now, I already have Glenn Maxwell and Suresh Raina in my team for this game!

The first transfer that I’ll be making is getting in Hashim Amla into my side. His assurance with the bat ensures at least 50 points and thus seems like a worthwhile transfer. Also, with a bowling lineup that doesn’t boast of much spine, Amla should help himself to at least a 30 or 40.

Brendon McCullum is the next batsman that would be in my consideration set. With Fandromeda offering you more leeway with respect to transfers, you could almost cover all your bases by getting in McCullum, hence this would be a ‘covering all your bases’ transfer and not a ‘strategic one’. Get him in nonethless, you don’t want to be at the receiving end of McCullum special.

Now, if you just wanted to make 2 transfers bringing in McCullum would mean that you would be left without a proper bowling captain. In order to get round this issue, I’ll suggest you drop BMac and get in Axar, who has had a lot of success against McCullum as well. Thereby taking care of your issues of missing out on a McCullum special.

Batting star: Suresh Raina/Hashim Amla(whoever bats second)
