Overview
The Mumbai Indians will travel to Pune to play the Supergiants tomorrow. For this round of fantasy cricket, try picking most of the bowlers from the MI team as they have been amongst the wickets.
As far as batting goes, pick the tried and tested top-order of Pune. It remains to be seen whether Usman Khawaja will arrive or not in time for this game.
Probable 11 that could take to the field
RPS- MS Dhoni, Peter Handscomb/Usman Khawaja, Ajinkya Rahane, Steve Smith, Mitchell Marsh/Albie Morkel, Thisara Perera, Saurabh Tiwary, Ravi Ashwin, Rajat Bhatia, Murugan Ashwin, Ashok Dinda
MI- Ambati Rayudu, Rohit Sharma, Jos Butler, Parthiv Patel, Harbhajan Singh, Kieron Pollard, Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, Mitchell McCleneghan, Krunal Pandya, Tim Southee
Players who cannot be ignored
Steve Smith- The Aussie skipper is coming off a splendid hundred in the last game. Looks poised for another decent showing.
Mitch McCleneghan- The Kiwi pacer has the golden arm and time and again the defending champions look up to him for wickets.
Ajinkya Rahane- The elegant opener is going through a brilliant run in the ongoing tournament and promises lot more.
Dark Horses
MS Dhoni- With injuries in the squad, the skipper could promote himself up the order. A devastating knock is around the corner.
Ambati Rayudu- He will continue to bat at no.3 and is a perfect guy to resurrect the innings.
TFG PUNDIT XI: MS Dhoni, Ajinkya Rahane (C), Steve Smith (vc), Thisara Perera, Ravi Ashwin, Ashok Dinda, Ambati Rayudu, Rohit Sharma, Harbhajan Singh, Mitchell McCleneghan, Kieron Pollard
