For today’s IPL match, the must-haves for Dream11 fantasy game are several. Let’s have a look at the scenarios.
KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS & RAJASTHAN ROYALS LIKELY TEAMS
For their last game, KKR made three changes against SRH hoping for a turnaround. Rinku Singh (replacing Robin Uthappa) scored 30 off 25 balls (second highest of the innings) while Yarra Prithviraj (replacing Prasidh Krishna) and KC Cariappa (infor Kuldeep Yadav) bowled five overs between them for 63 runs and one wicket. With just one of the three making significant contribution, will KKR revert to their tested players or give the freshers one more go?
In a crunch match, going with the experienced lot makes sense.
KKR likely XI: 1 Chris Lynn, 2 Sunil Narine, 3 Shubman Gill, 4 Nitish Rana, 5 Rinku Singh, 6 Andre Russell, 7 Dinesh Karthik (capt/wk), 8 Piyush Chawla, 9 Kuldeep Yadav, 10 Harry Gurney, 11 Yarra Prithviraj/Prasidh Krishna
Expected changes: Kuldeep Yadav for KC Cariappa.
