NOR vs WAS Risky Captaincy Choices:

Tom Taylor has already picked up 5 wickets in 2 matches in this tournament. Since he is a bowler, it’s a bit risky to pick him as your fantasy team captain.

Chris Woakes will be lead of the bowling unit of Warwickshire and he can also score handy runs down the order. You can take a risk in picking him as your fantasy team skipper.

Player you should avoid:

Craig Miles has scalped only one wicket in the last 3 matches and he is slightly expensive as well/ Going with his current form, it’s hard to include him in the fantasy teams.
