T20 World Cup 2021: 3 players who can be surprise picks in Dream11 Fantasy for AUS vs SL

Australia and Sri Lanka are all set to meet each other in the Super 12 round of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021. The two teams have started their main round on a high and would want to continue their good momentum. Australia has beaten South Africa while Sri Lanka got two points from Bangladesh. For this contest, here are the 3 surprise picks for the Dream11 fantasy contest: 

1. Kusal Perera

The left-handed batter is possibly the best batter in this team and has a good enough experience of doing well at a big stage. Interestingly enough, he has also played a good knock during the game against Australia at the 2019 Cricket World Cup in England. At the top of the order, he is a vital player for his team and would hope to get some important runs that can get them to a position of strength. He has had a bit of an off tournament so far, but don’t be surprised if he manages to bring his best game to the forefront in this contest. 

2. Glenn Maxwell

Now, it is obvious that Glenn Maxwell is not a surprise pick. However, there are several reasons why he should definitely be in your fantasy XI. He has emerged as the second spinner of this Australian team and did a fair job in the previous game, bowling four overs for 1 for 24. Apart from this, he has been excellent with the bat in recent times during the IPL. He should be able to bring that experience and his brilliant form into this game. In the past, he has made healthy contributions for his team in all departments against Sri Lanka. 

3. Pathum Nissanka

The opening batter of Sri Lanka is a seriously talented player and has the ability to get a big score. He scored 61 runs against Ireland in the qualification round. Apart from that, he has not got his act together but he is too good a player to just sit around and not deliver at big stages. He is definitely a surprise package, because he is still quite young to the international stage and not a lot of people have seen or heard about him.
