SRH vs LSG Dream 11 Top Picks
KL Rahul
After a golden duck in the first game, KL Rahul hit a 26-ball 40 in the clash against CSK that was instrumental in the team’s epic 211-run chase. Clearly, the LSG skipper is in blistering form and his hunger for big runs has only increased from the past. The swashbuckling opener’s partnership with Quinton de Kock sets the momentum for LSG in the beginning. The SRH bowling unit is a bit inexperienced and Rahul might look to make the most out of it.
Nicholas Pooran
The Caribbean power-hitter disappointed in the first game after his bizarre stay for 9 balls ended in a duck. No doubt, Pooran has the potential to turn tables over in a flash but consistency has eluded him in the IPL. Against LSG, the Windies gamechanger will be geared up to live up to the expectations and help his team go over the line.
Ayush Badoni
The youngster has been a pleasant surprise for LSG. A clinical fifty followed by a match-winning cameo- Badoni is a strong contender for the emerging player award of IPL 15. His caliber to stay calm and play shots all around the ground makes him a special player. Undoubtedly a great player in the making, Badoni is set to yet again play a pivotal role for LSG against SRH.
