Let us take you all to the Probable Fantasy XI you can create with the following tips:-

Wicket-Keepers

Going by the current form, MS Dhoni seems to be a better pick for fantasy cricket in the wicket-keeping department. However, the Mumbai pitch is supposed to be bowling friendly wicket and Jos Buttler has been quite inconsistent with his form lately. But one has to agree with the fact a player of his stature can gain his form back in any game.

Batsmen

Going by the current batting form of both the teams, Ajinkya Rahane, Steve Smith, Faf du Plessis, and Kedar Jadhav one of the prime contenders for the fantasy cricket. Apart from them, there are some useful batsmen in the line-ups as well, like Suresh Raina, Sane Watson, Ambati Rayudu, and Rahul Tripathi.

All-rounders

There are some really reliable all-rounders in both the teams but going by the current form, Ravindra Jadeja, and Ben Stokes to be the perfect fit. Apart from them, only another quality all-rounder is Krishnappa Gowtham.
