Injuries & Illnesses

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

The pitch at Lauderhill is expected to be balanced. A look at the past few international matches played here shows that the bowlers have enjoyed plenty of success. While the surface is likely to be good to bat on during the first half, playing shots in the second innings will get difficult. Also, the conditions are likely to be overcast and there will be some moisture in the air.

There might be some rain interrupting the play.

SFU vs SO Dream11 Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

While Finn Allen hasn’t been in the best of form recently, he remains the top choice. We are also selecting Shayan Jahangir, as he has been pretty consistent.

Batters

Shimron Hetmeyer is in red-hot form and is a natural choice. Jake Fraser-McGurk has also played well over the past few games.

All Rounders

Both teams have some quality all-rounders to choose from. Matthew Short, Kyle Mayers, Romario Shepherd, and Hassan Khan are all in good form and made it to our team.

Bowlers

Since the bowlers are likely to get help from the surface, we have selected Haris Rauf and Xavier Bartlett. Waqar Salamkheil comes in as a specialist spinner.

SFU vs SO Captain and Vice-Captain Choices

Captain

Matthew Short has been in excellent form with the bat and the ball and is the captain of our team. He is one of the best all-rounders in the league and is likely to earn plenty of points.

Vice-Captain

We are nominating Haris Rauf as the vice-captain. He is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament and since the pitch and the conditions are likely to help the seamers, he could play an important role.

SFU vs SO Team Expert Advice

The pitch in Lauderhill is likely to be quite different compared to that in Dallas. The batsmen need to be careful while selecting their shots as the ball does move around a bit. The conditions are likely to be overcast and there will be some moisture under the surface, helping seamers. We have therefore selected a balanced side giving equal weightage to bowlers and batsmen.
