Description: LFL Vs XFT Dream11 Team Overview, Match Centre And Probable Playing 5: Xinjiang Flying Tigers handed a massive setback after being torn into shreds by Liaoning the last time around

When second placed Xinjiang Flying Tigers stepped out to compete in the second semi-final of CBA 2019-20, there was nothing which alluded towards the set of events set to unfold on the day. This was a rampant side, a team which made a compelling case for winning the league after holding a runaway lead over everyone in the league stage encounters.

However, that entire narrative was walked all over by Liaoning with the third placed side pulling off one of the results of the season. In a game where few gave them a chance, not due to their stature by the superior quality of their opposition, Liaoning showed why the club should never be dismissed this season.

The 116-88 win on the day not only hands the side a sizable advantage ahead of the second face off between the two clubs but has seen the wind completely change its course in this scrimmage. From few giving them a chance, Liaoning are now being considered as one of the challengers for the glistening trophy. 

LFL Vs XFT Dream11 Probable Winner

It was the overwhelming manner in which Liaoning pulled off that result which sees the side emerge as such a firm contender for this season’s trophy. The semi-final win came in the wake of a gritty and gusty 127-123 win over Zhejiang in the quarter-finals, two performance which show that this side can peddle a win in the unlikeliest of circumstances.

However, we just can’t write off Xinjiang after one bad outing with this being a juggernaut which has gone for the jugular in every game. We envision them righting their mistakes today to restore parity in the series.

Dream 11 Picks

Point Guard

Shiyan Gao has time and time again proved why he’s such a pivotal wheel of this Liaoning contingent. The point guard registered 13 points to his name the last time around, yet again shooting at a high conversion rate from the deep to see him become an instant pick for us today.

Shooting Guard 

At a measly 5.5 credits, Zhi Xuan Liu might just end up being the best player we have in our side today. He delivered 12 points against a stern and superior defence the last time around, a performance which saw him seal an escalated role for himself come today.

Despite seeing the rest of his side surprisingly lose composure and falter, Qi Lin managed to make a name for himself. The Xinjiang name dropped 15 points and accrued the 7 rebounds as well when the sides last took on each other to make him a must have pick for the outing. 

Small Forward

O.J. Mayo showed what he’s capable of by winning the game for Liaoning in the first round of the second semi-final. In what was one of the most well rounded showings of the season, the small forward ended up registering a staggering 20 points, 6 assists and 3 rebounds to see him be our pick in this slot.

Power Forward

Both our picks in this slot will be cheap but value selection from Xinjiang Flying Tigers. We begin with Rufukati Jiang who registered a double-double of 10-11 for his side the last time around, a performance which grew in stature given the complete absence of support from his counterparts.

Lutubula Lutubula was turned to by the second placed side as the team tried new combinations to traverse their way past rough waters the last time around. And the player saw his endeavours pull off 9 points in the paint to make him our cheapest pick at a meagre 4 credits.

Centre

For the first time since the restart, Zhou Qi failed to run the show for Xinjiang. With Liaoning guarding him at every step of the way, Qi failed to get the requisite space to work his magic.

Despite that, he ended up registering the 13 points and 10 rebounds as he tried to keep his side in the contest to see the ever present figure once again clampdown his way in our side. Ziming Fan will move in next to him after he dropped 11 points courtesy of his offhanded shots in the paint.

Star Player

His luscious game winning display from the previous encounter will make Mayo our side’s star player while Qi is the pro player.
