Aiden Markram is in sensational form and will be a good captaincy pick for your fantasy teams.

South Africa will take on Sri Lanka in the Group 1 contest of the T20 World Cup 2021.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, did well to post 153 runs on the board against Australia on Thursday. However, they were outplayed by the better team on the given day by 7 wickets.

Pitch Report:

It’s a herculean task for the batters to score more than 8 runs an over on these spin-friendly conditions. It’s hard to chase more than 150 runs on this typical Sharjah wicket. Batting first is an excellent option.

Top Picks for SA vs SL Dream11 Match:

Top Picks ­Batters

Aiden Markram looks a completely different player when he is in full flow. He deserves huge credit for his match-winning knock against the quality West Indies unit. In just 26 balls, he smashed 51* runs which comprised of 2 fours and 4 sixes.

Charith Asalanka is the player to watch out for Sri Lanka in the future. He has got real talent and has done incredibly well in the last 2 matches by scoring 35 and 80* against Australia and Bangladesh respectively.

Top Picks ­All-Rounders

Dwaine Pretorius came out of nowhere and picked up 3 wickets against West Indies on Tuesday. He is the only all-rounder in the South African line-up and will be a good budget pick for your fantasy teams.

Wanindu Hasaranga is known for his deceptive bowling and he had a good game against Australia, where he picked up the important wicket of well-set Aaron Finch, and later removed dangerous Glenn Maxwell. Overall in this World Cup, he has scored 81 runs and has also picked up 8 wickets.

Top Picks ­Bowlers

Anrich Nortje has been a huge headache for the batters with his fierce bowling. He hasn’t given away easy runs in the last 2 matches and has picked up 3 wickets at an impressive economy of 4.37.

Maheesh Theekshana went wicketless in the last game against Australia, despite bowling well. In 4 matches in this tournament, he has picked up 8 wickets at an economy of 5.53.

Top Picks ­Wicketkeepers

The good news for South Africa is that Quinton de Kock is available for selection for the remaining World Cup matches. He can be dangerous when he is on song. The wicketkeeper-batter is a natural stroke maker, and his innings will be key for South Africa in the initial overs.

SA vs SL Risky Captaincy Choices:

Reeza Hendricks played a handy knock of 39 runs from 30 balls against West Indies. He is likely to keep his place for his match and will be a risky captaincy pick for your fantasy teams.

Bhanuka Rajapaksa has scored 129 runs in 4 innings in this World Cup at an average of 64.5 and a strike rate of 148.27. It’s worth a risk to pick him as your fantasy team skipper.

Player you should avoid:

Considering there are plenty of options available in the batter’s slot, it’s better to avoid Temba Bavuma while making your fantasy teams.
