Predicting Dream11 Top 3 fantasy players
#SURYAKUMAR YADAV
Suryakumar Yadav has had great luck with his bat for a few months now. After the amazing IPL season in 2020, Yadav might have hoped for an official call-up from a national team. However, it did not happen immediately, which must have triggered the player. Since then, he played exceptionally well and eventually got propelled to enter the Indian T20I team for the series against England.
In his only two innings in the T20I series, he smashed 89 runs with a strike rate of 185.42. It would be interesting to see him play in the IPL 2021 in MI vs RCB match.
#HARDIK PANDYA
Hardik Pandya, the Indian all-rounder has performed exceptionally well in the last season of IPL, where he scored 281 runs at an average rate of 35.12 and a strike rate of 179. In the limited-overs series that happened before IPL 2020 against Australia and England, he was seen playing quite well and carried his good batting in the games. However, as noticed, Hardik Pandya’s bowling will be the biggest advantage for the Mumbai Indians this season.
As it is seen, in the 2020 edition of IPL, Pandya has seen batting in the whole season and now he has been given a chance to bowl this year after keeping in mind his bowling skills in the international series. His brilliant performance as a bowler and his ability to take on the wickets makes him a great option for fantasy teams in MI vs RCB match.
#VIRAT KOHLI
When the Indian captain Virat Kohli announced that he was going to open the innings for RCB in the IPL 2021 season, fans couldn’t stop getting excited which is in fact, not surprising. As seen in the last year, Kohli ended up scoring his four T20 centuries.
The RCB captain scored 231 runs with an average of 115.50 and a strike rate of 147.13 during the T20 series against England. Without a doubt, adding Kohli in the Dream 11 fantasy players in the MI vs RCB match ensures us with guaranteed points in the fantasy competitions.
