Wicket-Keeper
Wriddhiman Saha (8.0 Cr) was able to create all of his contributions from his skills from behind the stumps in the last match and holds immense batting potential which can lead to a better approach for this contest.
Batsman
Nitish Rana (9.0 Cr) can play brilliant innings which has not been the case in the recent games which pushed him to score 48 runs at a strike rate of 228.57 in the last match.
Jason Roy (7.5 Cr) has made the best out of his opportunities with consistent runs in all of his recent games added with another 56 runs at a strike rate of 193.10 in the last match to help the top order.
Shubman Gill (9.0 Cr) was aiming to play his part in covering 56 runs at a strike rate of 164.71 which should be well backed up with consistency making him our prime choice for this encounter.
David Miller (8.0 Cr) was able to score 46 runs at a strike rate of 209.09 to reach a better total that is well backed up with his efforts on the field which can allow him to play his responsible role in the middle order.
All-rounders
Andre Russell (8.5 Cr) is a player the team looks largely dependent on as he can create some power-hitting shots to score important runs followed by his bowling experience which makes him a potential game changer.
Hardik Pandya (9.0 Cr) was amazing with his batting in the middle of the batting order which is an added bonus towards his bowling potential that has helped him provide his share to the game.
Bowlers
Varun Chakravarthy (8.0 Cr) was able to push the bowling innings with 3 wickets in the last match to take his total to 14 wickets in 8 matches which makes him a crucial contributor.
Suyash Sharma (6.0 Cr) holds amazing potential to create fast wickets but is lacking consistency that should keep him motivated to regain his form for this contest.
Rashid-Khan (9.0 Cr) was brilliant in the last match after adding 2 wickets at an economy rate of 6.75 in the last match which highlights his composure and responsibility in the team which makes him our prime choice for this encounter.
Mohit Sharma (6.5 Cr) holds a total of 6 wickets in the last 4 matches which should keep him focused on continuing with his current momentum that can work well in his favor for this contest.
