Let us take you all to the Probable Fantasy XI you can create with the following tips:-
Wicket-Keepers
Going by the current form, Quinton de Kock seems to be a better pick for fantasy cricket in the wicket-keeping department. However, the Kolkata pitch is supposed to be batting friendly wicket and Sanju Samson 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, Rohit Sharma, Surya Kumar Yadav, Ajinkya Rahane, and Jos Buttler are one of the prime contenders for the fantasy cricket. Apart from them, there are some useful batsmen in the line-ups as well, like Kieron Pollard, Rahul Tripathi, and Ishan Kishan.
All-rounders
There are some really reliable all-rounders in both the teams but going by the current form, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, and Stuart Binny seems to be the perfect fit. Apart from them, the good all-rounder for IPL fantasy cricket is Krishnappa Gowtham.
