The 15th match of the European Cricket League (ECL) 2022 has the Helsinki Titans (HT) taking on the Austrian Cricket Tigers (ACT) at the Cartama Oval in Cartama on Wednesday.
The Austrian Cricket Tigers have blown hot and cold in the ECL despite starting the tournament with a big win over Dreux. However, they would love to return to winning ways against the Helsinki Titans, who have won once in three games so far. Despite the likes of Ghulam Abbas Butt and Ahad Qureshi in decent form, the Titans will fancy their chances of a win over the Tigers. With two valuable points up for grabs, one can expect a hard-fought contest in Cartama.

Pitch Report
As is the norm at the Cartama Oval, another high-scoring game beckons with little help on offer for the bowlers. Although the new ball should do a bit for the pacers, the batters should enjoy the ball skidding nicely on to the bat. There could be a hint of inconsistent bounce, which the spinners will look to make use of in the middle overs. Both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss, with 120 being par at the venue.
Today’s ACT vs HT Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Aniketh Pusthay: Aniketh Pusthay hasn't been able to score many runs in the middle overs in the ECL this year. But given the Titans captain's ability to score big runs in the middle order with his explosive batting prowess, Pusthay is a good addition to your ACT vs HT Dream11 fantasy team.
Batter
Abdul Ahad Qureshi: Ahad Qureshi has been Titans' go-to player with both the bat and ball in the ECL. Although he has been lukewarm on the batting front, Qureshi has been bang on the money with the ball, claiming seven wickets in just three games. Given his form, Qureshi should stand out as a must-have in your ACT vs HT Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounder
Imran Asif: Although Imran Asif has been at his best with the bat in the ECL, he comes into the game on the back of a rare failure against Tunbridge Wells. He will be keen to get back amongst the runs, making him one to watch out for in this game.
Bowler
Adal Afzal: Like Imran Asif, Adal Afzal has been in fine form himself, albeit with the ball. Although he did not get much of a chance against Tunbridge Wells, Afzal's ability to break partnerships in the middle overs holds him in good stead ahead of this much-awaited clash.
