Top Picks for GT vs RR Dream11 Match:

Top Picks – Batters

David Miller:

He won the Player of the Match award in the last game against RR as he played an unbeaten knock of 68 runs off 38 deliveries. This has been his best performance in an IPL season since his debut. He has made 449 runs in 15 matches at an average of 64.14.

Yashasvi Jaiswal:

He has been able to reinvent himself after a dismal run in the first-half of the tournament. He has scored 236 runs in 9 matches at an average of 26.22 and a strike rate of 132.58 including two half-centuries. In the last game against RCB, Jaiswal made 21 runs off 13 deliveries and added 61 runs for the first wicket along with Jos Buttler.

Top Picks – All-Rounders

Hardik Pandya:

He is the leading run-scorer for GT in the tournament. He has made 453 runs in 14 matches at an average of 45.3 and a strike rate of 132.84. Hardik also bowled 2 overs in the last game and picked a wicket. With the bat, he made 40 runs off 27 deliveries and helped finish the game, remaining unbeaten.

Ravichandran Ashwin:

He is one of the best performers for Rajasthan Royals with both the bat and the ball. He has delivered each time he was promoted in the batting order. With the ball, Ashwin has taken 12 wickets in 16 matches at an average of 39.25.

Top Picks – Bowlers

Prasidh Krishna:

After a horrible performance against GT in the first qualifier, Prasidh Krishna made a wonderful comeback in the last game against RCB. He picked 3 wickets in 4 overs and gave away just 22 runs. Prasidh has picked 18 wickets in 16 matches at an average of 28.38.

Rashid Khan:

With 18 wickets in 15 matches at an average of 22.38, Rashid Khan is the second-highest wicket-taker for GT this season. In the last 5 matches, Rashid has picked 9 wickets and would be hoping to deliver a memorable performance in this game.

Top Picks – Wicketkeeper

Jos Buttler:

In the last game, Jos Buttler made 106 runs off just 60 deliveries while chasing a target of 158 runs and single-handedly took RR over the line. He has made 824 runs in 16 matches at an average of 58.85 and a strike rate of 151.47.

GT vs RR Must Picks for Dream11 Fantasy Cricket:

Suggested Playing XI No.1 for GT vs RR Dream11 Fantasy Cricket:

Jos Buttler (C), Sanju Samson, David Miller, Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ravichandran Ashwin, Hardik Pandya (VC), Yuzvendra Chahal, Mohammed Shami, Prasidh Krishna, Rashid Khan.

Wriddhiman Saha, Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson, David Miller (C), Shimron Hetmyer, Shubman Gill, Devdutt Padikkal, Hardik Pandya, Mohammed Shami, Rashid Khan (VC).

GT vs RR Risky Captaincy Choices:

Mohammed Shami:

He is the leading wicket-taker for GT this season with 19 wickets at an average of 23.94. He would be playing a key role in this match considering that pacers are likely to get a lot of help.

Shimron Hetmyer:

He has made 303 runs in 14 matches at an average of 50.5 and a strike rate of 157.81 including one half-century. He has not made more than 10 runs in an innings in the last 3 games and we might witness a special innings from him in this game.

Player you should avoid:

Rahul Tewatia:

He has not got an opportunity to bat in the last 2 out of 3 games because the top-order has done the maximum scoring. If the same happens in this game, he is unlikely to deliver a decent performance.
