Expert Advice:

Fitri Sham, the captain of Western Warriors is a pretty good option in the category of bowlers. However, Sham being slated at 8 credits made him get ignored from fantasy teams. He has picked 62 wickets in 52 domestic T20 matches but scored only 316 runs due to which we couldn’t pick in any of our fantasy teams.

Probable Winners:

Central Smashers are likely to edge past Western Warriors due to their batting line-up.
