TFG Fantasy Pundit: Bowling all-rounders hold key for the first ODI between NED & NEP

Overview 

The Nepal team has plenty of batting & bowling all-rounders in their scheme of things, owing to which their line-up is very difficult to predict. On the other hand, the Dutch will go ahead with their tired and tested cricketers. There is also no threat of rain for this round. 

Probable 11 for the round 

NEP- Gyanendra Malla, Paras Khadka, Sharad Vaswekar, Sagar Pun, Raju Rijal, Sandeep Lamichhane, Rajesh Pulami, Basant Regmi, Sompal Kami, Shakti Gauchan, Sunil Dhamala

NED- Wesley Barresi, Stephen Myburgh, Van der Merwe, Ben Cooper, Peter Borren, Tim Gruijters, Ahsan Malik, Michael Rippon, Mudassar Bukhari, Tim van der Gugten, Paul van Meekeren

Players who cannot be ignored 

Paras Khadka- The Nepali skipper might open the bowling with the off-breaks and also bats at the top. 

Stephen Myburgh- A real swashbuckler, this opener from Holland. Can get runs quickly at the top. 

Van der Merwe- Many of you might have seen him in SA colors. Now, the dynamic all-rounder plays for the Dutch. A very useful fantasy buy. 

Dark horses 

Sharad Vaswekar- A very fine middle-order batsman for Nepal. Likes to anchor the innings. 

Paul van Meekeren- He has been a genuine wicket-taker for the Dutch in the T20s. Made a mark in the 2016 WT20 in India. 

TFG Pundit XI: Paras Khadka(C), Sharad Vaswekar, Sagar Pun, Basant Regmi, Ben Cooper , Wesley Barresi, Stephen Myburgh(VC), Van der Merwe, Peter Borren, Tim van der Gugten, Paul van Meekeren
