Rishabh Pant will be under immense pressure when he leads Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the next IPL match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Ekana Sports Cricket Stadium on Monday evening. LSG are currently reeling outside the top four and need to win their remaining three matches to have any chance of making it to the playoffs. Even if they manage to win all three, there’s still no guarantee of a top-four finish, as it will ultimately depend on other results and net run rate. While it’s all down to permutations and combinations at this stage, what LSG can control is building momentum. They will be aiming to kick-start a winning run with this match.

LSG vs SRH Dream11 Top Fantasy Cricket Picks

  • Nicholas Pooran: LSG’s leading run-scorer this season with 410 runs in 11 innings. The biggest takeaway from his performances so far is the strike-rate which is above 200. He is a true menace, a pure match winner for any team.
  • Abhishek Sharma: Only if he could be more consistent this season, SRH might have been in top-four. That said, on his day, there are only a handful of players who can put on a show like Abhishek Sharma can, like his incredible century against Punjab Kings earlier in the season.
  • Mitchell Marsh: With 378 runs across 10 innings, Mitchell Marsh is another player in LSG team who has been in good touch throughout the tournament. He plays with aggression and can change the game in a matter of few overs.
  • Travis Head: The Australian superstar has also underperformed this season. His run tally of 281 runs in 11 innings is way short of the level we expect from him. But like Abhishek Sharma, he is a pure match winner.
  • Pat Cummins: SRH captain Pat Cummins has contributed this season. He has taken 13 wickets in 11 games and scored runs as well down the order. The former Australia T20I captain can fetch good amount of fantasy points due to his all-round skills.
  • Harshal Patel: Somehow Harshal Patel always finds his ways to wickets. This season, despite not being consistent, he is the leading wicket-taker for Sunrisers Hyderabad, having taken 14 wickets this season. If you are ready to take a risk in Dream11 fantasy grand league teams, Harshal Patel could make a real difference.
