This is a straight shootout between Bravo and Pollard. Generally I would go with Bravo but seeing Pollard’s performance in the tri series and his cost in the Moneyball9 Fantasy game, I opt for him.

He has started to bowl once again and will bat higher up the order than Bravo, thereby getting more chance to make a significant contribution with the bat.

Bowlers

Sunil Narine will be the first bowler that I get in for this game. Despite a remodeled action, he has been getting wickets and bowling miserly, something that wasn’t expected when he returned to international cricket in this year’s IPL. Get him in!

Wayne Parnell was very impressive for the Proteas in the tri series, bowling inch perfect Yorkers in the death overs. He should be employed in a similar role by the tridents and I expect him to excel at that once again.

Nikita Miller is my third pick in this category and that is mainly because of budget issues. But you should take heart in the fact that he opened the bowling in the last game for the Knight riders, bowling beautiful left arm offspinners. Againt a predominantly right handed Tidents side, Miller should be able to get a wicket or two.

Flexible Player

Kevon Cooper is my flexible player for this game. He gave away just 28 runs in the last game and came into bat at number 6 as well. He costs just Rs 4500 and this is a brilliant value pick as he gives you double scoring opportunities at such a low price.

Happy team picking!
