Top Picks for SL vs IRE Dream11 Match:

Top Picks ­Batters

Avishka Fernando is performing consistently with the bat for Sri Lanka. He saved his side from early collapse in the last match against Namibia and scored vital 30* runs from 28 balls.

Paul Stirling’s experience will definitely come in handy in this match. He remained unbeaten on 30 runs from 39 balls and got his team home comfortably in the end against the Netherlands.

Top Picks ­All-Rounders

Wanindu Hasaranga can cause plenty of damage with his variations and he is an excellent batter as well. He picked up 2 wickets in the last match against Namibia at an economy of 6.

Curtis Campher picked up 4 wickets in 4 consecutive deliveries in the last match against Netherlands and became the third bowler to achieve this feat at the highest level.

Top Picks ­Bowlers

Namibian batters didn’t have any answers against Maheesh Theekshana. He bowled well and picked up 3 wickets at an economy of 6.25, and was rewarded as the player of the match for his amazing bowling performances.

Mark Adair has outstanding with the ball in the last match against the Netherlands. He picked up 3 wickets and just conceded 9 runs in his full quota of 4 overs.

Top Picks ­Wicketkeepers

Kusal Perera got the start he wanted against Namibia and didn’t able to convert into big one, as he was dismissed for just 11 runs. You can still back and include him in your Dream11 fantasy teams.

Player you should avoid:

Neil Rock is a middle-order batter. He won’t be getting much opportunity to score big runs. Hence, it’s better to avoid him while making your fantasy teams.
