C

Paul Stirling ABD | BAT

The star Irish top-order batter smashed 54 runs off 38 runs while chasing a big 188-run target against Dubai Capitals in the last match. He will be looking carry to making a similar impact in this fixture and the rest of the tournament.

9
C

Andre Russell ABD | ALL

The star Caribbean big hitter scored 12 runs off 12 balls and took a wicket while conceding 31 runs off his four-over spell against the Capitals. Russell has struggled for consistency but remains one of the best T20 cricketers in the world.

8

James Vince GUL | BAT

The experienced English batter is named as captain of the Giants this season. He enters this tournament in good form for Sydney Sixers in BBL 2022-23 with 263 runs from just nine innings.

8.5

Sunil Narine ABD | ALL

Abu Dhabi Knight Riders' skipper took Robin Uthappa's big wicket while conceding just 28 runs against Dubai Capitals in the last match and should be in your Dream11 Team at any cost.

7.5

Dominic Drakes GUL | BOWL

The young Caribbean bowling all-rounder has taken 43 wickets from 43 T20 innings and was in good form in the recently concluded LPL 2022.

Chris Jordan

GUL | BOWL

The veteran English pacer has struggled for the economical spell in the recent games and is also lacking consistency with wickets. He has taken only five wickets from his last five T20 innings but has proven very costly.

9

Rehan Ahmed

GUL | BOWL

The 18-year-old spin all-rounder recently made an international debut for England in Tests but is yet to make a similar impact in T20 cricket.
