IPL 2019 : Dream 11 Fantasy Team

Match 23:
Chennai Super Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders  (April 9, 2019)

 PREVIEW

 Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders are the top 2 teams of the IPL this season so far.
Both teams have played 5 matches and won 4 of them. The match is set to take place in MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai which is known to be good pitch with assistance for spin. Andre Russell has been the player of IPL so far and despite a relatively quiet match against the Rajasthan Royals will the main man for KKR. Imran Tahir has been in good form in IPL this season and is expected to be main man for CSK due to the nature of the pitch.

FANTASY TEAM

 WICKET KEEPER

M S Dhoni has been amongst the runs this IPL and is expected to slot in at No. 5 for CSK. Dinesh Karthik too is a good wicket-keeping option but due the form of the top order of KKR, is not expected to play a significant impact batting for KKR.

 BATSMEN

 Robin Uthappa and Nitish Rana both have had great IPL season so far and are in excellent touch. Chris Lynn and Sunil Narine are power hitters and can struggle in the Chennai pitch.

Faf du Plessis has been in great form for South Africa during the recent ODIs and played a good knock of 50 in the previous match.

Suresh Raina has been not at his absolute best but is one of the best player of spin in CSK. The chennai pitch being two-paced can suit his batting style and can also chip in with a couple of overs as well.

ALL-ROUNDERS

 Andre Russell is a must have fantasy pick and can produce another magical display against CSK.

Sunil Narine played a good knock with the bat during last match. He has not been picking up wickets regularly this season so far but the Chennai pitch can aid his wicket taking ability.

BOWLERS

 Imran Tahir is a must have fantasy bowling option as he has been picking up wickets regularly irrespective of the pitch conditions.

Harbhajan Singh has been in great wicket-taking form and is a budget fantasy pick.

Kuldeep Yadav has been unlucky and punished so far in IPL, but we can expect the tide to change for Kuldeep in Chennai.

Piyush Chawla is a good leg-spinning bowler and can be utilized in power play. Chawla is a wicket taking budget fantasy bowling option.

IPL FORM (last 5 matches)

 CSK  - W W W L W
KKR - W W L W W


Fantasy Team XI: M S Dhoni (Wk), S Raina, F du Plessis, R Uthappa, N Rana, A Russell (C), S Narine (VC), I Tahir, H Singh, K Yadav, P Chawla

Players to watch out for:

Harry Gurney is a good T20 player with the ability to pick up crucial wickets as well as score some runs down the order.

Ravindra Jadeja is one of the most exciting all-rounders in IPL with the bat, bowl and field and can be the impact game changer.

IPL 2019 : Dream 11 Fantasy Team Match 15: Mumbai Indians vs Chennai Super Kings (April 3, 2019) Chennai Super Kings are the team on form in this encounter. The pitch in Mumbai is expected to be batting friendly with bit of assistance for spin. Rohit Sharma is one match away from scoring a big runs and is a must have option in your fantasy team. Shane Watson and Suresh Raina are both impact players and can score big runs on their day and are risky options to not pick. Both the keepers are in good form, so picking one over the other is difficult.  Quinton de Kock being an opener has more chance of scoring big runs than M S Dhoni ,and has found the spot in our fantasy team. Then again, Dhoni can score big runs too as shown in the previous match with innings of  unbeaten 75. Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya are both impact player for Mumbai and are both match winners with their bat and bowl. Dwayne Bravo has the ability to pick up wickets at the death overs and c...
