Sompal Kami

NEP | BOWL

The right-arm seamer has gone wicketless in the last three matches and seemed to be struggling to find form. Considering the pitch favours spinners, Kami is likely to have another poor outing.

Faisal Khan

SAU | ALL

Faisal Khan did not perform well in the last three matches. He managed to score just one 30-plus score, which came at a strike rate of 125. Taking him into your team may not be a wise decision considering his poor form.
