In the 55th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 the Delhi Capitals (DC) will be locking horns with the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Monday. Both teams will be fighting to get the top-2 position at the points table, and even the loser could potentially get disqualified. DC is going through a losing streak of four games despite having a balanced team, as none of their batsmen has fired against quality bowling attacks.

Kagiso Rabada’s dip in form has been greatly detrimental to their fortunes, as Anrich Nortje and R Ashwin aren’t taking wickets consistently. They will need an improved effort from Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant, who have underperformed as compared to their standards. The Capitals will have their hands full against Virat Kohli and his men, but RCB’s slow run-rate in the middle overs have put qualification hopes put in jeopardy.

With a decent bowling attack in place, RCB would hope Kohli will fire in a do-or-die game for both sides. The reverse fixture between the two outfits earlier in the IPL saw DC beat RCB by a huge margin, and they will be hoping for an encore on Monday. With this being an important match for both teams, we should be in for an entertaining encounter in Abu Dhabi.

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

Wicket-Keepers

AB de Villiers seems to be a better pick as he has been known for making a strong comeback and he will be much more effective on slow pitches this season. However, for DC, Rishabh Pant will be keeping the wickets as he is known for playing match-winning knocks, but in order to maintain the balance of the IPL Fantasy XI, De Villiers seems the better pick.

Batsmen

Virat Kohli, Aaron Finch, Devdutt Padikkal, Shikhar Dhawan, and Shreyas Iyer have always been the prime contenders for fantasy cricket. Even, Prithvi Shaw also is added in fantasy cricket and that will depend on the balance of the squad. Apart from them, there are some useful batsmen in the line-ups as well, like Shimron Hetmyer, and Gurkeerat Mann.

All-rounders

There are some really reliable all-rounders in both the teams but citing the pitch in Abu Dhabi, Marcus Stoinis, and Chris Morris seems to be the perfect fit. Apart from them, the good all-rounder for IPL fantasy cricket is Washington Sundar.

Bowlers

Both the teams don’t have decent bowling line-ups but they have managed to do a decent job. Bowlers like  Navdeep Saini, Mohammed Siraj, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kagiso Rabada, and R Ashwin become the obvious choices for the IPL Fantasy XI on the sticky track of Abu Dhabi. Apart from them, some crucial bowlers can be like, Dale Steyn, Umesh Yadav, and Tushar Deshpande.
