Fantasy Matchday 24, CSK vs DD: Best XI to pick for today's game

Sunrisers Hyderabad defended a below-par score yet again to go on top of the IPL 2018 table. Rajasthan Royals lost their way after a very good start by Rahane and Samson because of a fine bowling performance from SRH. RCB faced yet another defeat yesterday in the hands of KKR and have a mountain to climb if they have to qualify for play-offs. KKR, meanwhile, are occupying the fourth play-off spot after their victory against RCB.

CSK have a chance to move on top of the table when they face the bottom most side DD in the only fixture today. DD thumped KKR in their last game and will be confident going into this game. They are likely to retain the same eleven that played against KKR. CSK will be without Chahar for the next two games at least and they are unlikely to trust any youngster in place of him. They are likely to bring Karn Sharma in place of Chahar and Willey/Ngidi in place of Tahir.

2. Shane Watson (11.5 M- 200.5 Points)-CP

3. Prithvi Shaw (7.1 M- 65 Points)

9. Dwayne Bravo (10.7 M- 167 Points)- CP

10. Avesh Khan (5.5 M- 51 Points)

11. Trent Boult (8.1 M- 141 Points)

Alternate Options:

There are alternate options for the players who have not been listed under the Core players in the above eleven. You can consider these players in your team but ensure that you are able to accommodate them in your available budget!

1. Rishabh Pant (10.3 M- 169.5 Points)

2. Suresh Raina (11.8 M -158 Points)

3. Amit Mishra (7.7 M- 28.5 Points)

4. Harbhajan Singh (9.5 M- 49.5 Points)

5. David Willey (9.8 M- 0 Points)

Captain Options:

1. Shane Watson – He is due for a big score and today might be the day he does it. He might have to share the burden of bowling in the powerplay since Chahar is injured and has the potential to give you lot of points.

2. Glenn Maxwell – He has a very good record against CSK (He has scored 204 in 4 innings at an SR of 202). He is a very good differential option which might help you with the ranking if he fires.
