Pitch Report
The pitch is expected to be a balanced one. Batters can play their shots once they are set. There will be some help for the pacers with the new ball and the spinners will get some purchase as well. Chasing sides have been successful at this venue but it's difficult to chase here if the team batting first scores around 160-170. Bowlers and all-rounders will be important in this game.
Fantasy Value from Pitch Report
- Pick new ball bowlers from both the sides.
- Thunder's top order is looking vulnerable so Michael Neser will be an excellent C/VC pick for this game.
- Spinners from the second innigns will be crucial.
- Bowlers who will bowl in the death overs in the first innings will be very important.
- All-rounders who will bowl 2-3 overs and will bat in the top 5 will be a must.
