DC vs MI Fantasy Cricket Tips

Delhi Capitals Heavy Fantasy XI

• Top-order batters from the DC team, like Jake Fraser-McGurk and Prithvi Shaw, will be good picks. Rishabh Pant played an excellent knock in the last game against the Gujarat Titans and will be a prime choice for this match. 
• Khaleel Ahmed had a good start to the tournament, but in the last couple of matches, he has looked a bit out of rhythm. However, he has the ability to pick up wickets in all stages of the game and could be a good fantasy choice. Besides Ahmed, Kuldeep Yadav could be an important pick. 

Mumbai Indians Heavy Fantasy XI

• Rohit Sharma has looked in good touch in the tournament. Sharma has seen a bit of a dip in his form after a brilliant hundred against the Super Kings. So, he could be a decisive choice in the fantasy contests of the match. Apart from Rohit, Suryakumar Yadav will be a very important pick for the fantasy contests. 
• Jasprit Bumrah has been the start for the Mumbai Indians in their bowling efforts. He will be a prime choice for the fantasy contests. Apart from Bumrah, Piyush Chawla could be an interesting choice.

Jake Fraser-McGurk (DC)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 163 runs in 4 innings 
• The 22-year-old batter has impressed everyone with his power-hitting in the tournament. Jake Fraser-McGurk has scored 163 runs in 4 innings at a strike rate of 211.68. He has shown that if he lasts too long in the crease, he could take the game out of the opposition’s reach. The impact that he could have on the DC innings makes him a vital C or VC choice for the game. 

Rohit Sharma (MI)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 303 Runs in 8 Innings
• The Indian skipper has been up and down with his performances in this tournament. However, he has scored 303 runs in eight innings and is the highest run-scorer for his team.

DC vs MI Differential Picks

Tristan Stubbs (DC)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 225 Runs in 8 Matches
• After playing a couple of impactful knocks, Stubbs has stayed quiet in the last two or three matches. However, he showed his hitting prowess in the last game, scoring 26 runs off just seven deliveries. If Stubbs gets a chance to bat, he can be a game-changer in fantasy contests. 

Hardik Pandya (MI)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 151 Runs and 4 wickets in 8 Matches
• The MI-skipper is finding it hard to get a rhythm going, either with the bat or the ball. However, if Hardik Pandya regains his form, he has the ability to win a game for the team on his own. He is due for an impactful show in the tournament, and this could well be his day.
