Indian T20 League 2019, Match 51: Mumbai vs Hyderabad – Fantain and Dream 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips

Mumbai are just one win away from confirming a place in the top 4, With 14 points in 12 matches, they will retain the third spot on the points table if they beat Hyderabad in match no. 51 of Indian T20 League 2019. Hyderabad, for the first time this season, will be without David Warner, who has returned home to prepare for the World Cup.

Hyderabad need to win both their remaining games in order to qualify for the playoffs. In Warner’s absence, a lot of work will have to be done by Kane Williamson and Manish Pandey. Here is all you need to know for both the teams before you pick your Fantain and Dream11 teams.

Team News –

Mumbai

Although Mumbai lost their previous game against Kolkata, it is unlikely that they will tweak the playing XI. Rohit Sharma, Quinton de Kock and Evin Lewis will have to contribute with the bat in this game to remove pressure from Hardik Pandya.

Likely playing XI – Quinton de Kock (wk), Rohit Sharma (C), Evin Lewis, Suryakumar Yadav, Kieron Pollard, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, Rahul Chahar, Barinder Sran, Lasith Malinga, Jasprit Bumrah

Sunrisers Hyderabad

News has it that David Warner will be replaced by Martin Guptill. The rest of the squad is likely to remain the same.

Likely playing XI – Martin Guptill, Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Manish Pandey, Kane Williamson (C), Mohammad Nabi, Vijay Shankar, Abhishek Sharma, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Khaleel Ahmed, Sandeep Sharma

Fantain XI 

Wicket-keeper – Quinton de Kock, Wriddhiman Saha

Batsmen – Rohit Sharma, Manish Pandey (C), Kane Williamson

All-Rounders – Kieron Pollard, Hardik Pandya (VC)

Bowlers – Rahul Chahar, Rashid Khan, Jasprit Bumrah, Khaleel Ahmed

Captain and vice-captain options

Although David Warner and Jonny Bairstow themselves scored the bulk of the total innings, every time the middle-order had to step up, it failed. However, Manish Pandey has been performing well since the last two games and would be raring to go in this do-or-die encounter. Kane Williamson could also be a captaincy option, but Pandey seems a better choice for the role.

Hardik Pandya has been finishing all the games for Mumbai on a high. The last game against Kolkata saw him score 91 runs off 34 balls. With the kind of form he is in, the all-rounder is a good choice for the vice-captain a lot.

Dream11 Prediction

Suggested Playing XI No.1 for Head to Head/ Small Leagues:

Keeper – Quinton de Kock

Batsmen – Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, Martin Guptill, Manish Pandey (VC)

All-Rounders – Hardik Pandya (C), Mohammad Nabi

Bowlers – Lasith Malinga, Rahul Chahar, Rashid Khan, Khaleel Ahmed.

Fantasy tip

Rohit Sharma did not have the kind of outing he would have liked against Kolkata in the previous game. He was also fined a sum of his match fee for stopping the ball with his legs. He will like to make amends for all of this by scoring big and taking his side to yet another playoff.

Suggested Playing XI No.2 for Grand/ Mega Leagues:

Keeper – Wridhhiman Saha

Batsmen – Rohit Sharma (C), Evin Lewis, Martin Guptill (VC), Manish Pandey, Kane Williamson

All-Rounders – Hardik Pandya

Bowlers – Lasith Malinga, Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Rashid Khan.

Fantasy tip

Jasprit Bumrah’s Yorkers too could not stop the Andre Russell assault in the last game against Kolkata but the bowler has an impeccable record in Wankhede and will be looking to make the most of it.
