LAKR vs MINY Dream11 prediction: 3 players you can pick as captain or vice-captain for today’s Major League Cricket Match - July 17th, 2023

Los Angeles Knight Riders and MI New York would lock horns in the sixth match of the Major League Cricket season at Grand Prairie Stadium, Dallas on July 17, Monday.

In the tournament opener, the Los Angeles Knight Riders faced a severe drubbing over the Texas Super Kings. Despite having strong batting and bowling line-ups, Knight Riders failed to put on a show in both departments.

Led by Narine, Knight Riders will be eager to put that disappointment behind them and make a strong comeback.

MI New York, on the other hand, also faced a defeat over San Francisco Unicorns in the second match of the season. Although the middle-order performed well with the willow, it wasn’t enough for MI to secure a victory.

They would be eyeing to turn the tables when they take on Knight Riders in their second contest.

That said, here are three players you may consider picking as captain or vice-captain for the LAKR vs MINY Dream11 game.

Knight Riders would heavily rely on their star Caribbean all-rounder Andre Russell in both batting and bowling departments. Interestingly, Russell was the only player to do well in the team's season opener over Texas Super Kings.

With the willow, he was the only batter from Knight Riders to cross the score of 50. With the ball, he couldn’t pick a wicket. Russell is another valuable captaincy choice in your LAKR vs MINY Dream11 game.
