Wicket-Keeper
M.S Dhoni (8.5 Cr) was able to score 21 runs at a strike rate of 262.50 in the last match along with his consistent contributions behind the stumps which could make its way through to this contest.
Ishan Kishan (9.0 Cr) scored the important 51 runs at a strike rate of 118.60 along with his performance on the field which takes his total to 321 runs in the last 11 matches.
Batsman
Ruturaj Gaikwad (9.0 Cr) is the leading run-scorer from his team with a total of 306 runs in 11 matches with an improvement in form which makes him our prime choice for this encounter.
Devon Conway (9.0 Cr) has also shown amazing improvements with every passing match which earned him 87 runs at a strike rate of 177.55 in the last match which should allow him to give his all in this contest.
Tilak Varma (9.5 Cr) remains the leading run-scorer from his team with a total of 334 runs in the last 11 matches which can push him to retain his form as witnessed at the earlier stages of the season.
Rohit Sharma (8.5 Cr) has the potential but lacks the consistency expected from him with the experience he carries which should allow him to score runs considering his current trend in the recent matches.
All-rounders
Ravindra Jadeja (8.5 Cr) was rested in the last match but could make his way back as he can create his chances with his contributions on the field and with his batting and bowling potential which can improve his chances in this fixture.
Bowlers
Dwayne Bravo (9.5 Cr) made his way back to the starting 11 and was able to find 2 important wickets to maintain is place as the leading wicket-taker from his team with 16 wickets in 9 matches which should allow him to continue with his form in this contest.
Mukesh Choudhary (8.5 Cr) was also able to add 2 wickets to his fantastic form which takes his overall total to 13 wickets in the last 10 matches that should allow him to use his momentum in this contest.
