IPL 2020: 3 players you can exclude from Dream11 team for RR vs SRH game

Sunrisers Hyderabad and Rajasthan Royals will be up against each other in match no. 40 of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Both teams will be playing with the ultimate goal to get those two points and up their chances of qualifying for the playoffs. RR will be high on confidence with the victory they got against CSK in their previous game.

They played as per their plan in their previous game and will be looking to do the same in this as well. Their bowling has been on par and their batting too has clicked. RR will be looking to replicate their previous match’s performance and bag those two points. SRH haven’t really clicked in unison since their last victory. Their batting isn’t performing as required and their bowling hasn’t found the rhythm yet. They will have to up the ante and bag those two points if they are eyeing for playoffs qualification.

Here are the three players that you can exclude from your Dream11 team for RR vs SRH game:

1. Manish Pandey (9 credits)

Manish Pandey has had a silent IPL so far. He has managed only 212 runs from 9 matches with a high score of 54. With the reliance of SRH batting on him, his performance has gone down this season. Hence, you can have a go at other options from SRH alone.

2. Ankit Rajpoot (8 credits)

Ankit Rajpoot has the raw pace to trouble the batsmen but the line and length he chooses to deliver is what makes him expensive. He has managed to pick only 2 wickets from 4 matches. He also bowled only one over against CSK which was surprising. With the presence of Kartik Tyagi and Natarajan in the combined line-up, you can give Rajpoot a miss for your Dream11 team.

3. Ben Stokes (9.5 credits)

Ben Stokes has been criticized for not providing performances as hefty as his auction price. Though he has been successful as an experiment of an opener, with the ball, he hasn’t got many opportunities to prove himself. He is yet to find the touch he has when donning the English colours. Therefore, he’s our third player to be excluded from your Dream11 team.
