Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

The final of the Deodhar Trophy 2019 pits India B and India C against one another with some of the most talented players in the Indian domestic circuit taking it to the field on Monday. Both teams already played the game on Friday with India C overcoming a tough situation to emerge as winners by a whopping 136 runs. Although both teams did rotate their squads, a more competitive game is expected between the two sides in Ranchi as they compete for the Deodhar Trophy.

Mayank Agarwal and Shubman Gill are key for India C with the opening duo already registering hundreds in the series. While their bowling unit is also well-rounded with the presence of Axar Patel, India B will look to avenge its defeat with the likes of Kedar Jadhav and Yashasvi Jaiswal looking to make amends for a no show on Friday. While India C is considered as the obvious favourites, an even contest awaits between the two sides

Weather Condition/Report:

Another clear day is on the forecast with no chance of rainfall in Ranchi on Monday. The temperature will range between 21 and 29 degrees Celsius with a cloud cover of 31% at the start of the game, according to AccuWeather.

Pitch Condition/Report:

All three games at the venue have seen the team batting first put on scores in excess of 270. A similar wicket awaits both sides with some turn on offer for the spinners as well. Teams will prefer to bat first upon winning the toss and make good use of the conditions.

Bench: Priyam Garg/Anmolpreet Singh, Diwesh Pathania, Dhawal Kulkarni/Avesh Khan

Top Picks:

Baba Aparajith leads the run-scoring charts with 154 runs in two games so far. The TN all-rounder is in very good form, which makes him the one to watch out for along with Axar Patel. Axar Patel’s all-round performance in the previous game paved the way for a huge India C win against the very same opponents.

Shahbaz Nadeem played against India A, where he bowled an economical spell without any wickets to show for. Nevertheless, Nadeem is aware of the conditions at his home ground and should make good use of it. Shubman Gill, who scored 144 against India A earlier in the tournament, is also a dependable option. These players should be picked in your Dream11 Fantasy team.

Captain – Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Axar Patel

Expert Advice:

Shubman Gill is a viable pick and is priced at 9 credits, which is less than the likes of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Priyank Panchal. With the India C captain already scoring hundred in the tournament, he looks good for more in the final.

Picking more batsmen from the team batting first would be more preferable with the pitch wearing off as the game progresses. So wait for the toss to take place before finalising your Dream11 Fantasy team.

India C is expected to win the encounter.
