Injuries & Illnesses

Both teams have fully fit squads at their disposal

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

The pitch at the National Stadium is usually good to bat on. The batsmen will have a good time in the middle once they settle down and can play their shots with ease. That said, the bowlers can expect some help if they pitch the ball in the right areas. The surface could become a bit two-paced as the innings progresses.

The weather will remain warm and there might be some dew on the ground during the second half.

KK vs IU Dream11 Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

Tim Seifert is our top choice when it comes to the wicket-keepers. He has played some good knocks at the top of the order and can also play the big shots.

Batters

Both teams have some brilliant batsmen who are in good form. Colin Munro, Sahibzada Farhan, and James Vince are the top three run-getters of the tournament. We are also selecting David Warner given his experience in the shortest format.

All Rounders

Both teams have some quality all-rounders. We are selecting Khushdil Shah, Shadab Khan, and Imad Wasim for our team.

Bowlers

Jason Holder and Hasan Ali are the top two wicket-takers of the season and make it to our team. We are also picking up Naseem Shah as he can be quite effective on this surface.

KK vs IU Captain and Vice-Captain Choices

Captain

We are selecting Jason Holder as our captain. He has picked up at least 4 wickets in 2 of his last 3 matches and is the leading wicket-taker of the season. Holder is also a handy batsman lower down the order and can play the big shots.

Vice-Captain

Sahibzada Farhan is the vice-captain of our team. He has played a couple of brilliant knocks and is the leading run-scorer of the tournament.
