Player Picks
Asif Sheikh NEP | WK
The Nepal opener has scored 124 runs in three matches at an average of 41.33 at a strike rate of 131.91. In the last match against Hong Kong, he smashed a blazing 18-ball 40 to help his team register a comprehensive win.
Dipendra Singh Airee NEP | ALL
Dipendra Singh is a key cog in the Nepal team due to his all-round prowess. He scored 64 runs at a staggering strike of 304.8 against Qatar. He has also taken six wickets in three matches.
Abdul Waheed Ghaffar SAU | BAT
Abdul Waheed is the mainstay of the Saudi batting unit. The opening batter has amassed 109 runs in two matches at a strike rate of 141.5, with a best score of 77 against Hong Kong.
Usman Najeeb SAU | BAT
Usman Najeeb is Saudi Arabia's leading wicket-taker with six scalps in two matches. His brilliant spell of 3/33 helped Saudi defeat Malaysia by 12 runs.
Abdul Manan Ali SAU | ALL
Manan Ali scored a quick-fire 18-ball 44 against Hong Kong. The wicket-keeper batter seems to be in great form and he may earn you good points in the upcoming match.
Abhinash Bohara NEP | BOWL
Abhinash Bohara took five wickets in three matches. The right-arm pacer recorded figures of 3/29 against Hong Kong. Looking at his current form, Bohara would be a great pick for your fantasy teams.
Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team
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.
