SLK vs ABF Top Player Picks

Roston Chase (SLK)

The all-rounder performed admirably in the West Indies round of the World Cup and was previously named the franchise's MVP. Chase can take wickets with his right-arm finger spin and is an important middle-order batsman. He demonstrated his worth in one of their recent games by scoring a key fifty while batting in the middle order.

Faf du Plessis (SLK)

The top-order batsman has received starts throughout the competition but has been unable to capitalise on them until their latest encounter against the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots. He smashed 62 runs off 31 balls, offering a great start with the bat with five fours and as many sixes.

Fabien Allen (ABF)

Apart from funny celebrations, Fabien Allen is famous for his all-round abilities. That was certainly up for show during the recent matches of the Falcons. Allen continued his good bowling form from the Lanka Premier League, scalping seven wickets so far. He adds depth with the bat lower down the order too.

Shamar Springer (ABF)

The pacer has been one of the finds of the particular edition. He bagged seven wickets thus far in the marquee event with a four-for at the initial stages. Springer is lanky and is height helps to hit the deck hard, causing trouble to the batters due to extra bounce.

SLK vs ABF Differential Picks

Johnson Charles (SLK)

The top-order batter has been in amazing form for the Kings. He went berserk in scoring 72 runs in their recent assignment against the Patriots. Charles might start slow but has the ability to accelerate later in the game. Despite his previous inconsistencies, the swashbuckler averages 45.25 with the bat.

Justin Greaves (ABF)

The 30-year-old has been vital for his side and won matches with the bat, averaging 54.67 in four games. The Barbadian all-rounder has piled up 164 runs and has the potential to pick wickets as well.

SLK vs ABF Fantasy Expert Advice
