Match Preview

A third straight loss in the tournament could be fatal for the Central Stags’ chances in this edition of the GSL. The team will need to rapidly improve their batting efforts.

The Hobart Hurricanes are continuing to push for their ascension to the top of the table. A win against their rivals from New Zealand could settle those nerves. They only took one match to claim their first victory.

Injuries & Illnesses

Neither team will need to worry about performance based on any injuries. The team should feel refreshed knowing they will be walking in with full squads of fit players.

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

The pitch in Guyana will look great for you if you’re a spin bowler. The slow, spinning surface should create wicket-taking opportunities for the spinners. The teams will need some crafty batters to put their hands up and generate a reasonable score. The Stags’ 92 all out against the Amazon Warriors is the lowest score at the ground.

CD vs HH Dream11 Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

Dane Cleaver knows how to contribute with the bat for the Stags. The New Zealander hit three scores over 40 runs in the 2024-25 Super Smash. Ben McDermott will fix any Hurricanes batting questions which may be asked. The opening wicketkeeper-batter has 195 runs in his past eight Hurricanes innings.

Batters

Macalister Wright will cause detrimental damage to the bowlers. Wright has scored 442 runs in the BBL with four half-centuries. Will Young has not blasted off with any sort of exceptional brutality. The opener has been stable with 45 runs in his first two innings this GSL. Flashy Sri Lankan batter Bhanuka Rajapaksa will have some good stories to tell with the bat.

Rajapaksa has over 700 T20I runs for his national team. Tom Bruce has strengthened the lineup with his consistency. The Stags skipper has repaid his team with over 500 runs in the past two seasons of the Super Smash.

All Rounders

Angus Schaw is on par with some of the most dependable wicket-taking spinners in New Zealand. The off-spinner took a wicket in six of his nine bowling spells in the Super Smash this season. Fabian Allen has built himself up as an enormous chunk of this team with bat and ball. The West Indian all-rounder has 818 runs and 38 wickets in the West Indies’ CPL.

Bowlers

Blair Tickner has made a bit of noise with three wickets in his two innings this tournament. Jackson Bird will have the skills to navigate the slower surface. The clever seamer has 89 wickets in T20s. Matthew Forde should be glad playing in the Caribbean. The fast bowler has flown to 18 CPL wickets.

CD vs HH Captain and Vice-Captain Choices

Captain

Jamaican-born Fabian Allen has tortured batters with nearly 100 T20 wickets. The left-arm spinner has 98 T20 wickets with two four-wicket hauls.

Vice-Captain

Angus Schaw has whizzed his way to five wickets this GSL. The all-rounder took three wickets against Dubai and two wickets against Guyana.

CD vs HH Team Expert Advice

The players who know how to adapt to the slower surfaces should give you the greatest number of points. That goes for both the batting and bowling departments. The spin-bowling all-rounders like Dean Foxcroft of the Stags and Fabian Allen, together with Mohammad Nabi of the Hobart Hurricanes should be among the best value in your lineup.

The out-and-out spinners will be profitable. The pacers who rely on variations as well as other skills not reliant on pace and swing may be the most successful on the slower surface.
