Top Picks
Ross Taylor: Ross Taylor smashed 84 runs in the last game at a strike rate of 215.38. This batting ability together with his other contribution in the field and leadership skills make him a valuable addition to his team.
Dinesh Ramdin: Dinesh Ramdin is a wicket-keeper batsman for his team. Apart from his good work behind the stumps he also scored a few runs with the bat in the last game. But he will have to perform better with the bat to prove his value to his side.
Hamilton Masakadza: He is the batter that has done a great job for India Capitals right throughout the competition. If you take a look at his contributions in the earlier matches you will find remarkable consistency in his batting.
William Porterfield: William Porterfield keeps on growing in stature after every game he has played in the series. He has scored 119 runs in the last couple of games with a couple of half-centuries. He will be keen to keep his momentum going in this match.
