TSKS vs WAF Match Preview

A balanced Dream11 team requires batters who can break through bowling defenses and bowlers who can claim crucial wickets. All-rounders will be pivotal, offering their skills in both batting and bowling.

Marcus Stoinis will be the cricketing package you need in your side. As an example of his brutal ball-striking, he scored his first IPL century earlier this year when he hit 124 not out off only 63 balls versus Chennai Super Kings.

Faf du Plessis is a classy batter with the composure to match. He is also a batter in form after hitting 61 runs off 38 balls versus MI New York.

Travis Head is one of four Australasian batters in the top five of the Washington Freedom batting order. The Washington batting group's synergy has been one of the hallmarks for their current success.

The strength of a T20 team in a domestic T20 league is often driven by the strength of their local players. Andries Gous will be one of the American players in the Washington Freedom team who could be a huge contributor to a dominant season for them.

Black Cap Lockie Ferguson is a star cricketer. He has 190 T20 wickets. Besides his bowling, he also showed that he is a handy fielder too. He took three catches which dismissed three of the top four in the MI New York batting lineup.

Weather Report

The weather on matchday will be extremely hot with humidity around too. There is only a ten percent chance of rain.

Pitch Report

Whichever side bats second will have the favourable conditions. Dew is likely to make life difficult for the bowlers to grip the ball easily.

Notable stats

What goes up must come down

Although only in its infancy as a major T20 league, the champions of Major League Cricket have never gone unbeaten. The Washington Freedom have a chance to create history if they go unbeaten.

Team News

Neither side will be in any particular rush to make changes. Both teams are coming off the back of wins, plus there aren't any players in either side who are out of form. Any changes would be unlikely.

Dream11 Prediction

This game brings together a team that is almost unbeaten and a team who are unbeaten. With the slightly better form, Washington Freedom could take away two points.

Top Picks

Marcus Stoinis: Be wary of looking past the danger that Stoinis poses with the moving ball. He could extract movement off the surface. Stoinis claimed four wickets in his previous game against MI New York.

Travis Head: Head will be earmarked as one of the batters who can change the game in the blink of an eye. If he gets in, his strike rate of 144.14 will show that he can make it a big innings.

Andries Gous: The top-order wicketkeeper-batter will look to take the game to the bowlers. He is fresh off a half-century against MI New York which will give him the boost he needs.
