TFG Fantasy Sports: Fantasy Cricket tips for New Zealand v Sri Lanka 2nd ODI
OVERVIEW
New Zealand will take on Sri Lanka in the second ODI on January 5 in Mount Maunganui. TFG fantasy sports brings you tips and tricks for this fantasy round. The game will start at 6.30 a.m. IST.
NEW ZEALAND
The Kiwis are unlikely to tinker with their 11 for this game after winning the first ODI.
Guptill, Munro, Williamson and Taylor are the big guns in their batting. Can't be dropping them in fantasy cricket.
The resurgence of J Neesham with both bat & ball has come as a bonus and he should be a must in fantasy teams.
There was some injury concern for Sodhi in the last game. Remains to be seen if he is fully fit for this game.
PROBABLE 11
Munro, Guptill, Williamson, Taylor, Nicholls, Siefert, Neesham, Boult, Southee/Henry, Sodhi, Ferguson
SRI LANKA
The tourists have plenty to ponder after going down in the first game. Another defeat would mean series over.
There could be a few changes. Shanaka/D Silva and Samarawickrama could all get into the side ahead of Chandimal and Prasanna.
It is evident that most of their wickets are likely to come from Malinga and also Perera when he is bowling at the death.
K Perera got a brilliant 100 in the opening game and although their batting is largely inconsistent, it would make sense to include the attacking southpaw.
PROBABLE 11
K Mendis, K Perera, Gunathilaka, Dickwella, Samarawickrama/Chandimal, Shanaka/Prasanna, Gunaratne, T Perera, Pradeep, Malinga, Sandakan
