The experts from our editorial team will guide you to pick the best fantasy team and assist you in your quest to emerge victorious. 
Here’s our fantasy pundit column for UAE v BAN game.

OVERVIEW

Hosts Bangladesh will take on UAE in the third game of the Asia Cup T20 in Mirpur. As we have seen in the previous two games, the conditions might remain the same. That said, in this round we could see the Bangla top order come out all guns blazing. The Bangladesh bowlers are also likely to be amongst the wickets. The boundaries too are short at the ground, so include some big hitters in your fantasy teams.

Here’s the probable 11 that could take to the field tomorrow:

UAE: Rohan Mustafa, Kaleem Ahmed, Shaiman Anwar, Mohammad Shehzad, Mohammad Usman, Ahmed Javed, Swapnil Patil, Saqlain Haider, Ahmed Raza, Farhan Ahmed, Mohammad Naveed

BANGLADESH: Imrul Kayes, Soumya Sarkar, Mahmadullah, Shakib al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Shabbir Rahman, Mashrafe Mortaza, Mustafizur Rahman, Arafat Sunny, Taskin Ahmed, Al-Amin Hossain

Players who cannot be ignored for this round

Shabbir Rahman- He was the top run-getter for the hosts in the first game and looks in fine touch to improve his record in this format.
Shakib-Al-Hasan- The Bangladesh icon didn’t have a great outing against the Indians, but records will tell you that a player of Shakib’s caliber will hit back with a bang.
Rohan Mustafa- He will continue to open the batting for his team and is likely to score some runs at the top. It’s not to be forgotten that he is more than capable of breaking handy partnerships with the ball.
Mustafizur Rahman- He might have gone wicket-less in the last game, but he is still a formidable force to reckon with. Batsmen in the past have struggled to pick his variations.

Dark Horses for the round
Soumya Sarkar – The southpaw’s ability to go hammer and tongs at the top can add some crucial fantasy points to your teams. He might play some loose shots, but he is that kind of a player.
Mohammad Naveed- He will take up the new ball and is likely to give you some wickets which will help you in gaining some valuable fantasy points.
 
TFG Pundit 11: M Rahim, S Rahman, Shakib(c), Mustafa(vc), Mustafizur, M Naveed, Mortaza, Sarkar, Anwar, M Shahzad, Usman

Happy Hunting!!!
