ENG vs IND 5th Test Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Picks
Wicket-Keeper
Jos Buttler (9.0 Cr) was able to contribute decent runs which could improve but his skills behind the stumps make him a key player as he would be more refreshed for his return in this match.
Jonny Bairstow (8.5 Cr) has not been at his best form during this series as he contributes runs in the first innings but has failed in the second innings which he would definitely work upon in this contest.
Batsman
Joe Root (11 Cr) has been consistent throughout the series and there is no doubt he would be able to play his best in this match which makes him a game-changer of this match.
V.Kohli (9.5 Cr) started the series on a bad note but has regained his confidence with solid contributions in the last match which should continue in this match.
KL.Rahul (9.0 Cr) looked in good form in the second innings and should be able to confidently hold the opening position to maintain pressure on the opposition.
All-rounders
C.Woakes (9.0 Cr) came back after his injury and successfully took 7 wickets with 68 runs and should be able to roll on this form that makes him our prime choice.
Ravindra Jadeja (9.0 Cr) was finally able to shed 4 wickets in the last match and should be able to continue with his skills on this pitch.
Bowlers
Ollie Edward Robinson (8.5 Cr) continues to surprise us as he took 5 wickets in the last match and could get more wickets in this match.
James Anderson (9.0 Cr) has been in the background but still consistent with his bowling and this is his home pitch so wickets can be expected on the fastest pitch in England.
Mohammed Shami (8.5 Cr) is another player who returns from injury and could use this pitch to his benefit and could help the bowling attack as he constantly does.
Shardul Thakur (8.0 Cr) took 3 wickets but his batting performance outshines him in the last match as he scored 57 runs in the first and 60 runs in the second innings which made him a game-changer.
Dream11 Team Prediction Captain and Vice-Captain
C.Woakes performed brilliantly in all departments in the last match which makes him our captain.
J.Anderson understands this pitch extremely well and could benefit from his skills which makes him our vice-captain.
