Team Analysis:
Patna Pirates:
Pirates outplayed Pradeep Narwal-led UP Yodhas in their last clash to play the ultimate clash of the tournament. Amongst the raiders, Sachin (7-points) and Guman Singh (8-points) showed the perfect display of their talent, while Mohammadreza Chiyaneh and Sunil obtained High 5s for their team to ensure lead in a high-stake game. All-rounder Mohammadreza Chiyaneh and raider Sachin have been in good form throughout the season, and their presence in the fantasy squad will provide a much-needed edge. At the same time, Guman Singh can be another raider from the unit which can be added.
Dabang Delhi:
Naveen Kumar (14 points) attained his super 10 in a game against Bengaluru Bulls, which was earlier dominated by Pawan Sehrawat (18-points). Delhi surprised the Bulls with perfect All Outs to take the much-needed lead in the game. All-rounder Vijay (4 points), Sandeep Narwal (3-points) and Manjeet Chillar (2-point) made valuable contributions in the game to have the last laugh against Pawan Sehrawat-led squad. Naveen Kumar and Vijay are a must pick for the fantasy team, while Sandeep Narwal is a player of big contests. The all-rounder can also be considered in the fantasy team.
