SNP vs BR Fantasy Cricket Tips

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots Heavy Fantasy XI

• Kyle Mayers blasted off a 62-ball 92 against the St Lucia Kings recently and seems to be in terrific form. He has also been amongst the top wicket takers for his franchise apart from taking scintillating catches in the field.
• Evin Lewis smashed a hundred in the tournament and reminded all that he’s not yet finished.
• Anrich Nortje has been extraordinary with the ball for the Patriots. He has bagged six wickets from four games and is the joint-highest wicket-taker of the tournament.

Barbados Royas Heavy Fantasy XI

• Quinton de Kock smoked an unbridled 87 in their last game against the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons. He has found his touch since blowing hot and cold in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
• Maheesh Theekshana might find his foot in the Caribbean islands, having scalped a couple of wickets in their latest game.
• Obed McCoy is one of the most outstanding bowlers in the tournament and picked up three wickets in their last game. He has the ability to outfox the opposition with sudden slower ones.

SNP vs BR Winner Prediction

Although the Royals are a formidable line-up, their batting is yet to be tasted against quality bowling. The Patriots have plenty of match-winners up their ranks as it has been witnessed in their last few games. They are certainly the favourites to come out on the top.

SNP vs BR Top Player Picks

Quinton de Kock (BR)

The South African batter is a freelancer released off his international duties now. He has kicked off the Caribbean Premier League journey in some style after a whooping 87 in their last game. Quinton de Kock is excellent against pace and will fancy scoring runs in this belter of a pitch.

Obed McCoy (BR)

The left-arm pacer has the ability to pick wickets with both new ball and the worn out white rock. Obed McCoy has the knack for wickets and bagged three of them in their latest encounter.

Kyle Mayers (SNP)

Very few athletes can match the three-dimensional ability that Kyle Mayers bring to the table. Firstly, he shone with the bat against the Kings while also picking up a couple of wickets. Secondly, he is a terrific fielder and the ball tends to chase him on the hot positions of the field.

Evin Lewis (SNP)

Having stockpiled 171 runs from four innings at an average of 57, Evin Lewis is leading the charts in the most runs section of the tourney. The veteran has been striking the ball at the rate of 164.42. He is also the only batter to notch up a ton in the ensuing mega event.

SNP vs BR Differential Picks

Anrich Nortje (SNP)

The Proteas pacer might be a difference maker in the batter-dominated playing conditions of St Kitts. Irrespective of conditions, Anrich Nortje has extracted six wickets from four games and showed why he’s one of the best in the format, considering the current state of franchise cricket.

Dunith Wellalage (BR)

Although the young gun failed to make an impact in the Royals’ last game,  Dunith Wellalage is one to watch out for in the marquee event. The Sri Lankan player has the ability to control the powerplay and middle overs phase with the ball while also scoring runs lower down the order.

SNP vs BR Fantasy Expert Advice

Given the playing conditions for the match, a format of 2-3-3-3 or 2-3-4-2 should be good for monetary rewards.
