Top Picks for IND vs SA Dream11 Match:

Top Picks- Batters

Van der Dussen:

Although Dussen started slowly, he was terrific with his ball-striking capabilities in the back-end of the innings and scored an unbeaten 75 off 46.

David Miller:

The man-in form has remained unbeaten in his last three T20 innings. In the first fixture, he garnered 64* off 31 balls and will be upbeat ahead of this fixture.

Ishan Kishan:

Kishan finally delivered for the team in the series opener by hitting 76 off 48 balls and was sensational with his hitting.

Top Picks- All-Rounders

Hardik Pandya:

Although he went for 18 runs in a single over, Pandya was terrific with his quickfire knock of 31* in 12 balls.

Dwaine Pretorius:

The all-rounder picked a single wicket, and hit 29 off 13 balls, with four sixes, and will be a key player for the team in crunch moments.

Top Picks- Bowlers

Harshal Patel:

The talented bowler has been intelligent with his slower balls in this format to stun the batters. In the last game, he took an important wicket of Pretorius, who was going all guns blazing.

Anrich Nortje:

The fast bowler was terrific with his pace and accuracy in the first fixture and finished with figures of 1/36.

Top Picks- Wicket-Keeper

Quinton de Kock:

One of the most consistent run-scorers in the shortest format scored 22 runs in the last game and has been coming into this series with an impressive performance in IPL.

IND vs SA Risky Captaincy Choices:

Keshav Maharaj:

The left-arm spinner has done well in the red-ball cricket but will not be a good option to choose as a captain pick on smaller grounds.

The all-rounder is crucial to the Indian team due to his line lengths but has not delivered his best in the last months.

Players you should avoid:

Dinesh Karthik:

The accomplished finisher is expected to arrive at the number seven position and could not get much game time on his hand.
