SRH vs LSG Fantasy Cricket Tips

Sunrisers Hyderabad Heavy Fantasy XI

• The SRH batting's biggest strengths are the opening pair of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma. Head should be a must-pick for the game, while Sharma should be your filler. Heinrich Klaasen could be a rewarding choice for fantasy contests. 
• Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been doing an excellent job with the ball in the last couple of games. He could be an efficient choice for the fantasy contests. Besides Bhuvi, we can also select T Natarajan from the SRH bowling.

Lucknow Super Giants Heavy Fantasy XI

• KL Rahul and Marcus Stoinis are the highest run-scorers for LSG in IPL 2024. While Rahul has maintained consistency throughout the tournament, Stoinis has fired in the last couple of games. These two players could be the safest choices from the LSG batters and all-rounders section.

Heinrich Klaasen (SRH)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 339 Runs in 11 Innings
