We have made one change to our Fantasy XI. So, please have one look at the XI before locking your XI.
Paul Stirling: We would have bowled as well. We were in a good position when the rains came in last game. It is dry. Hoping it doesn’t get too much difficult. It is important to have your characters to have fun.
Sikandar Raza: We are gonna have a bat first. The wicket has been very dry. We want to be in a position where it doesn’t matter if we bowl first or bat first. Two changes for us. Craig is out. Sean had a chance but we won’t risk him ahead of SL series.
Pitch report: I think it is a good batting wicket. You can get some good work early on if you are a seamer. Traditionally the wicket doesn’t break here. Win the toss and chase here. A score around 250 is what would you need to do well.
